Description
Soliten 5 mg contains the main active ingredient Solifenacin, which belongs to a category of antimuscarinic or antagonists of muscarinic receptors. This drug is prescribed for the treatment of hyperactive urinary bladder. The hyperactive urinary bladder is a medical situation where there is an uncontrolled contraction of the urinary bladder, and this leads to frequent urge to urinate and no voluntary control over urine release. Solifenacin is very efficient in causing the relaxation of excessive contracted bladder muscles. This drug helps in lowering the frequency of urination as it interferes with certain chemicals constantly being produced in the body.
Soliten 5 mg drug contains Solifenacin as the main active ingredient. This drug acts as a potent selective competitive antagonist of cholinergic receptors, especially the M3 receptor. It blocks the normal binding of acetylcholine neurotransmitter to these M3 receptors. Solifenacin decreases the bladder muscle tone; as a result, there is an increase in the volume and urine retention in the bladder.
