Recently started Vesicare 5 days ago and there has been no change in my frequent trips to the bathroom during night time when sleeping. I also gained a pound and a half the past 5 days. Thanks. Canada
Is there any weight gain as a result of using Vesicare and how long must one take it before helps?

You can view the side-effect profile for vesicare here:
http://www.drugs.com/sfx/vesicare-side-effects.html
Weight gain is not reported as a side-effect.
You may experience symptom relief in two weeks. But some people may require several weeks longer. See your doctor if you have no relief of symptoms after a month or so.
