TakeFesobig 8mg Tablet ER 10s exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow all directions on your prescription label.

• Take this medicine once daily. It can be taken with or without food.

• Swallow the tablet whole with a liquid. Do not chew, divide, or crush the tablet, as doing so destroys the extended-release mechanism.

• Try to take the medication at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body.

Fesoterodine is a prodrug that is quickly broken down by the body into its active form. This active compound blocks specific acetylcholine receptors (muscarinic receptors) located on the bladder muscle. By blocking these receptors, the drug prevents the bladder from contracting prematurely or inappropriately, effectively increasing bladder capacity and reducing the urgent need to urinate.

• If you suffer from dry mouth while taking this medicine, try sucking on ice chips, chewing sugarless gum, or using a saliva substitute.

• Avoid becoming overheated. Anticholinergic medications can decrease your ability to sweat, making you more prone to heatstroke in hot environments.

• It may take a few weeks of consistent daily use before you notice the full benefits of the medication on your bladder control.

Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep out of reach of children.

• Grapefruit Juice: Grapefruit juice can increase the amount of fesoterodine in your blood. Avoid or limit grapefruit products while taking this medicine.

Tell your doctor about all your current medicines and any you start or stop using, especially:

• Potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (like ketoconazole, itraconazole, clarithromycin, or ritonavir) — these can increase fesoterodine levels.

• Other anticholinergic medications.

This medicine should be used with caution, or avoided, if you have:

• Urinary retention or severe bladder outlet obstruction

• Uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma

• Gastric retention or severe gastrointestinal motility disorders

• Myasthenia gravis

The recommended starting dose is 4 mg once daily. Based on your response and tolerability, your doctor may increase the dose to 8 mg once daily. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.

Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line immediately. Symptoms of an overdose may include severe anticholinergic effects like extreme dry mouth, severe dizziness, or urinary retention.
