For Overactive Bladder "2 months on Gemtesa, I was having painful urination, extremely dry skin and eyes. All my fingertips got knife-like cuts on them and hurt so bad I had to buy special cream for them and wear gloves at night. My eyes became so dry that when I tried to blink, my eyelids stuck to my eyeballs. I got styes on all 4 eyelids. Right eye is really painful. Medicated eye drops and ointment are not resolving the styes. I quit taking Gemtesa 2 months after I started taking it when the dry eyes became unbearable and styes started appearing, plus the painful urination was scaring me. I did not want to have to deal with UTIs also! Too costly, and I was not informed of a discount program and paid for a 90-day supply before I realized how intolerable the side effects were! The least they can do is reimburse me for the 90-day supply. I had to pay 2 doctors and buy 2 kinds of drops and 1 ointment, and now I have to see another eye doctor about the styes that aren't going away, the inability to see and burning eyes."

For Overactive Bladder "This med is so helpful for overactive bladder, and unlike some OAB meds, this one does not cause extreme dry eye and dry mouth. Also, I have not noticed any other side effects. Because it is so horribly expensive, I just take a pill every other day, but even that is helping a lot, especially at night. Now, instead of having to 'go' every 1.5 hours, I only have to get up twice a night, which is WONDERFUL! I wish Congress would quit bickering amongst themselves like a bunch of silly school kids and tackle exorbitant drug prices."

For Overactive Bladder "Usually reliable - lasts for approximately 7 hours - does NOT stop urinary leaking if alcohol has been consumed. Also I have experienced brain fog & short-term memory confusion & loss! Also caused severe dry eye. Still prefer to use this drug more than others in its class."
