For Urinary Frequency "I was on Vesicare for over a year and didn't feel much relief. When my doctor changed me to Enablex, I got immediate results without the annoying dry mouth symptoms. Been on this medication for 2 years, and I love it!"

For Urinary Frequency "Worked fine from day one. Stopped the urge for frequent trips to the bathroom. I have not had any symptoms of side effects such as swelling of feet or legs, etc. Been taking daily 7.5 mg. Only complaint is the very expensive cost."

For Urinary Incontinence "I'm on Day 3 and notice a big change. No more accidents in the morning on the way to the toilet! I am also on an estrogen cream called Estrace and have used that once. Time will tell if this really works: I was on Vesicare for a few weeks and got great results, then it began not to work, and severe constipation made me stop taking it. I will be adding fiber to my diet and work to prevent the constipation before it takes me over again. Went to a urogynecologist this time. P.S. There is a mint you can try for dry mouth. It has one side of it with a sticky ingredient that will stick to your mouth so you don't swallow it. It works!"

For Urinary Frequency "Took this medication for three months. It made me burn and raw, even alternating it to three times a week. Directions said not to cut, so I couldn't back down more. It seems the medication worked as far as the bladder symptoms but was unusable for me on a long-term basis."

For Urinary Frequency "I am on day 3 of 15 mg of Enablex, and my symptoms have gotten worse. Due to the dry mouth, I am drinking more, which is making me go to the bathroom more than I already was. Did anyone else have this problem?"

For Urinary Frequency "I've been using this medication for 2 weeks. So far, it helped me with my incontinence, but as far as the urgency and tension in the bladder goes, I see no improvement. I've been previously using Solifenacin, and that particular drug helped me with the urgency and tension, but had no effect on the incontinence. Overall, I prefer Solifenacin to Darifenacin (Enablex)."

For Urinary Frequency "I have been taking this medication for, I am guessing, two years and have loved it. Not really had any side effects that I could think of that were any big deal. Now, all of a sudden, about a week or two ago, I cannot go a day without an accident or a close call. I need to figure out something soon."
