For Overactive Bladder "My first week of taking this product was the best. I was able to sleep better because my trip to the bathroom to pee was only two, and I was rested the next day. As a result, my mood was better, and I was happier. There were also fewer bathroom trips during the day and no peeing accidents, not being able to hold my pee. After that, I still have fewer bathroom trips day and night but have peeing accidents once in a while, especially when I drink my usual 8 glasses of water. Overall, this product works for me, but it is too costly."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Worked immediately. Feel like I got my life back. No negative side effects that I recognize. Daily dosage 75 mg. Alongside, I do Kegel exercises twice a day as well as daily strengthening exercises for the pelvic floor. I have been using this medication for about six months. I hope to discuss with my physician reducing the dosage or discontinuing taking the medication without reoccurring overactive bladder problems."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "I have a temporary ureteral stent in after shockwave lithotripsy for a kidney stone. My bladder won't tolerate the stent, and I became completely incontinent, with no bladder control and a constant, unbearable urge to pee. The urologist gave me solifenacin to treat the urge incontinence, but it had no effect whatsoever and made me feel sick. By the third day, I was so miserable, I called the doctor and pleaded for some other drug. He gave me a 7-day sample of 75 mg Gemtesa to use with the solifenacin. It was effective immediately. I went from using 10 diapers a day to just two. Each day on it, the urge to pee became less and less, and I regained control over my bladder. By day 5, the urge was virtually gone, and I had complete control back. I was still feeling sick though. I stopped taking the solifenacin, and within a day, I no longer felt sick and my appetite returned. The urologist gave me another 7-day supply. I've been on it 10 days and have no side effects."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "This worked very well for me by day 2. I do have to take a stool softener every other day. I wish it were not so expensive! I try to wean myself off of it and take it every other day, then every three days. It does work for a while, and then I go back to more frequent."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Worked great. Stopped by urgent care to urinate every 45 minutes or so. Now I go every now and then or make myself go. The problems I have encountered, which I’m not sure if I can attribute to the drug, are constipation and hard stools. I’m also experiencing ED, which wasn’t great before but seems to have gotten worse. I’m sleeping better, and I used to get up 5-6 times a night… now maybe once!"

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Nine days after I started taking Gemtesa, I could make it to the bathroom without leaking and needing to change my pad. Within 3 weeks, I could go 4 hours without leaking day or night. Now, occasionally if I go over 5 hours, I sometimes leak a small amount. I would say it has improved my problem by 95%. Side effects I have noticed are a runny nose and a headache."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "It helped curb the incontinence but did not stop it. I still do not always make it to the bathroom in time, but the wetting is not a full release like it originally was. I have not noticed any side effects after 3+ weeks of taking this medication."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Gemtesa worked for me in just a few days. I've been on it for six weeks. I have had some gastro issues but don't know if Gemtesa is the cause. I also have some redness on my chest, not quite a rash, and don't know why that would happen suddenly after six weeks of use. Nothing that will cause me to stop using it. I'm very happy with the results of less urgency, fewer trips to the bathroom, and I can sneeze without leaking. Not having to always think about general overactive bladder issues is a game changer for this busy senior citizen. Pretty wonderful."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Was prescribed Gemtesa for urinary pain and urgency caused by endometriosis. Worked wonderfully for those symptoms! Fully reduced urethral pain and bladder aches. But caused a rare side effect of night sweats that got worse over time. After about three months, I had to stop the Gemtesa because the night sweats were too disruptive."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Gemtesa has significantly reduced the urgency to urinate, but not really the frequency. It seems once my bladder is full, I get a faint inkling that I have to go. I have a serious side effect that may lead to my ceasing taking Gemtesa, in that my stools are not recognizable, it just happens mostly when I urinate, but not always, which leads to some disgusting accidents."

For Overactive Bladder "For the first 9 days, it curbed the urgency and frequency, after that, it started again. I am able to hold it a little longer sometimes, and other times I can't. Sometimes I empty my bladder, and when for whatever reason I don't, then I void more frequently. I take 75 mg once a day. There are no side effects."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "This has helped so much to reduce frequency and urgency when nothing else has helped. I have a little hesitancy with urination, but I don’t mind that. It reduced my frequency from 30-60 minutes to 2-4.5 hours! No dry mouth side effect. I have only been taking samples from my doctor for 1 week. I see improvements every day."

Vibegron "Gemtesa has provided almost 100% relief for my extreme 'URGE' incontinence. On the other hand, my 'STRESS' incontinence seems to be on the increase. I also experience considerable urine 'DRIBBLING'. As a result, I find it necessary to wear Depends 24/7. I also suffer from moderate constipation that may or may not be related to Gemtesa."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Gemtesa was the first medication that improved multiple issues I had with overactive bladder. It was effective and with quick results. I did not experience any side effects or problems with Gemtesa. I would, very much, like to continue taking it, however, with my insurance payment, I had to pay $200 per month. With fixed income, Social Security, and other medications I take, I cannot afford to continue Gemtesa. Great product, too expensive. Thanks."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "I cannot RAVE enough about this drug. ZERO side effects. It started working after the first dose. I could cry. I have my life back. My urologist gave me a 2-month supply, but my cost through insurance is $165 for a 90-day supply. WORTH EVERY PENNY!"

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "I am not getting up at night as much by using Gemtesa. However, it is really expensive and I have new insurance, so I'm not sure if I can get a break. My last insurance charged me $70 for 90 days. The normal co-pay is over $300."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "My urologist prescribed this medication for me when I complained of total urinary incontinence and that I wasn't liking having to wear depends all the time, changing them sometimes 4-5 times a day. She gave me a sample of this pill and if it didn't help, that we would meet in a month to discuss other options. It has helped me tremendously with no side effects whatsoever. The only negative comment I have is the high cost of the pills and they are not covered by my Medicare plan."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "It works very well! It just may have worked too well since I’ve gone as much as 36 hours without urinating, when without it I can’t get very far away from a bathroom. Unfortunately, the cost in 2025 makes it too expensive for me to continue using it. My pharmacy said it increased $700/month. I’ve wondered if the increase was directly related to the success of the drug. If that turns out to be the case, I will forever boycott the company."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "First treatment I've tried over the past 6 years that worked right away. Tried all the gotta-go meds, had the vagal stimulator treatments for a couple of years. They worked for a while, but effectiveness started to wane. My first week with Gemtesa was great. Before, I was using pads every day, becoming incontinent without being able to control my bladder. It's terrible when it happens at work when you are a teacher sub. The pads became irritating to my private area. Now I can go all day without wearing a pad! It's great. I do find I need to drink more fluids, but that is not a big problem. No other side effects. One 75 mg pill a day and it's done. My biggest problem is that my insurance does not cover it."

For Overactive Bladder "Offered a 30-day trial of Vibegron 75 mg by my urinary consultant. I had uncontrolled bladder leaking for about four years and had tried Mirabegron previously but stopped the trial because of rising blood pressure. Vibegron started to work for me in about 6 hours, stopping my leaking bladder. Almost immediate side effect was to be unable to pass urine normally. However, I am used to self-catheterization and find that I use that about 4-5 times daily. Initially, I had some headaches as predicted, and I developed a rash around my mouth and lips, which dissipated after a week. I have found an increase in bladder capacity from around 300-400 ml to about 400-600 ml."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "First 2-3 hours after taking it, increases frequency and some bladder pressure. These effects dissipate gradually. I only recommend this drug if your insurance plan covers most or all of the costs. It’s an expensive medication."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "My experience with Gemtesa has been excellent. It stopped excess urine when I thought I had emptied my bladder. Antes Gemtesa, I would leave the bathroom with urine running down my leg and my pants having a large urine stain. I was no longer uncomfortable needing to use the urinal. No more leaking or stained pants. I have not had any side effects from Gemtesa! My dosage is one tablet per 24 hours. It works well for me."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "Gemtesa is a wonderful drug! I'm dry for the first time in years. I was previously using Trospium and didn't have good results with that. That was not the reason my doctor switched drugs. Seems that it's been discovered that Trospium can cause mental changes, which is not a good side effect for an elderly woman. Anyway, I couldn't be happier to be taking Gemtesa. I have no discernible side effects."

Vibegron "70-year-old with Parkinson's. Currently taking Terazosin for bladder leakage, well controlled. Urologist added Gemtesa, indicating it might help. 5 days into treatment, developed penile bleeding. Noticed no change in urgency. Discontinued the drug."

Vibegron for Overactive Bladder "This has been a life-changer for me. I've had problems that go way back into early childhood. My father used to plan trips by where the gas stations were. I only recently found out about pills that helped the urgency and control problems. From just about the day I started Gemtesa, I have had relief. I used to have to rush to the bathroom as soon as I walked in the house from driving. The difference is amazing. The PA at the urology practice mentioned it, and I tried it with reservations about yet another pill to keep track of. I'm so glad she told me about it. I highly recommend Gemtesa if your doctor suggests using it."
