For Urinary Frequency "I was given the 4 mg sample. After the first day, I was unable to urinate, and after several trips to the bathroom, I was able to drain the bladder. A few days later, I tried a second time with the same result."

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."

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 "Unknown (frequently needing to void my bladder and most of the time thinking I was getting a bladder infection.) I have read a few of these reviews saying it worked immediately for you. I’m not finding that I’m up a lot in the night to go to the bathroom, and I don’t feel like my bladder is emptying properly. Has it taken longer for some people than just three or four days, I guess it is?"

For Urinary Frequency "Been on Toviaz for two years now. The 8 mg. I do have dry mouth, I use the spray for dry mouth and that helps. My overactive bladder caused me to get up hourly at night, getting no rest, tired all day. I take my 8 mg tablet at night. I don’t have dizziness, don’t have nausea. This seems to work for me, I can get 2 to 3 hours of sleep before having to go pee. I can even go out shopping and do the dishes without having to stop and go to the bathroom. That’s good. I will not stop taking this until I have a problem with it, right now it’s OK."

For Urinary Frequency "Relieves all my strong urgency to urinate. It allows my bladder to fill up. Then I can go to the bathroom without running or wetting on myself. I have no side effects. Thank you for helping me with my bladder problem."

For Urinary Frequency "I got prescribed this medication because of how often I was going pee. They said it was overactive bladder. I took this medication once, and I will never take it again. It made everything so much worse. The feeling of having to urinate NEVER went away, never subsided at all, and then when I would try to go pee, I couldn’t. The more time went on, the more discomfort I felt because the unbearable feeling of having to pee was so intense, but then not being able to just made it horrendous. My stomach started to really ache because my bladder was full, but I COULD not pee. I will never ever ever take this again. One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had."

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."
