Always running to the bathroom? Maybe your internal plumbing isn’t working like it should. This quiz can help you talk to your doctor about it. When I go out, I always make sure there’s a bathroom nearby. Once I get the sudden urge to go, I can’t wait. I wear pads sometimes because I worry I might accidentally leak. I’ve had enough, and I’m ready to do something about my urges and leaks. If you answered “Yes” to any of these, tear out this quiz and talk to your doctor about your results. Only your doctor can determine if you have overactive bladder. Once-daily VESIcare is * proven to reduce frequent, sudden urges and leaks. That’s because it can help control your bladder muscle, day and night. So ask your doctor about taking care with VESIcare. *Results may vary. USE AND DOSE YES NO VESIcare is for urgency, frequency, and leakage (overactive bladder). The recommended dose of VESIcare is 5 mg once daily. If the 5-mg dose is well tolerated, your doctor may increase the dose to 10 mg once daily. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Clip here, tear out, and pipe up to your doctor. VESIcare is not for everyone. If you have certain stomach or glaucoma problems, or trouble emptying your bladder, do not take VESIcare. VESIcare may cause allergic reactions that may be serious. If you experience swelling of the face, lips, throat or tongue, stop taking VESIcare and get emergency help. Tell your doctor right away if you have severe abdominal pain, or become constipated for three or more days. VESIcare may cause blurred vision, so use caution while driving or doing unsafe tasks. Common side effects are dry mouth, constipation, and indigestion. Please see important product information on the following page.
