Indications

Enablex is used to treat overactive bladder, helping to control sudden urges to urinate, frequent urination, and urine leakage.

Pharmacology

Enablex works by blocking specific receptors in the bladder muscles, which helps relax the bladder and increases its storage capacity. This reduces the urgency and frequency of urination.

Enablex may interact with some medications, especially drugs that affect liver enzymes. Using Enablex with other similar medications can increase side effects like dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision.

Enablex should not be used by individuals with urinary retention, stomach blockages, uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma, or those at risk of these conditions.

Pregnancy & Lactation

Enablex should only be used during pregnancy if the benefits outweigh the risks. Enablex is not known if Enablex passes into breast milk, so caution is advised for breastfeeding mothers.
