Fesoterodine for Urinary Frequency "My 10-year-old daughter with spina bifida uses it. The main thing that we have noticed is the dry mouth. Her lips are cracked, but we apply Carmex and increase fluid intake because the benefits outweigh the risks. A satisfied customer."

Fesoterodine for Urinary Frequency "Worked great for 2 years. The dry mouth did pass, and I could go out with friends for a beer and have a coffee! But for some reason, it stopped working. Now on oxybutynin, colored 5 mg. Been taking that for 3 days so far, it isn't working. There goes my social life again."

Fesoterodine for Urinary Incontinence "I have OAB with urinary incontinence and have had nothing work for me. I started taking this in combination with Gemtesa, and it works!! I am dry for most of the day, but I do think it wears off around 5 pm or so. I highly recommend trying it if nothing is working for you! I do have bad dry mouth and harder stool, but I’ll take that over incontinence any day."

Fesoterodine for Urinary Frequency "I have been taking Toviaz for three days for bladder spasms, and it is working. However, I am feeling the side effects big time. Very dizzy, which makes me nauseous, and I have these body tics at night. It also makes me feel very tired. The dry mouth is really not that bad. I may have to stop taking this drug."

For Urinary Frequency "Mybtriq constipated me severely, oxybutynin stopped working after a couple of years. This is my last step before the Botox procedure, considering I'm so young and will deal with this forever. So far, it's been working fairly well. The dry mouth isn't nearly as bad as oxybutynin, and without overactive bladder medication, my quality of life is very poor. A couple of days into the transition of medication, I noticed frequency and urgency increase, but it has since gone back down! I only take 4 mg currently and haven't had any side effects besides light dry mouth, but the dry mouth on this is SOOO much less than my dry mouth was on oxybutynin!! I won't give it a full 10 until I've been on it for 6+ weeks, but I'm hopeful that this is going to prevent me from the next bigger steps of procedures (or at least put them off for a couple of years). Insurance wouldn't have covered it if not for my doctor advocating for me. Insurance is a pain."

Fesoterodine for Urinary Frequency "Took one tablet at bedtime, had no idea it would take effect so fast after having just one pill. Now I am cramping because I need to get the water, cranberry juice, tea out of me, so now I am panicked and have dry mouth, cramping, and feeling I need to pee. On the first night, it completely shut off, maybe 4 mg would work better, and reduced water intake after 8 pm."

Fesoterodine for Urinary Frequency "I started Toviaz about a week ago, and it doesn’t seem to be working. I wake up every night about 3-4 times to use the toilet. It gives me horrible headaches and dry eyes and mouth."
