| 3 | neurogenic bladder condition | Extreme thirst at times, fatigue, very frequent urination (maybe a symptom of the nerve injury), sometimes it doesn't seem to work as well as others -- seems to depend on how irritated the damaged spinal nerve involved is and/or maybe how much pressure there is on the nerve and or bladder. Symptoms generally get worse around my menses. | I get this medication from the local Costco Pharmacy, which serves a huge number of people, and was amazed to learn that I'm the only customer taking it regularly. I take 10 mg 4x a day. I would love not to need this medication, but without it apparently my bladder does not empty completely. I started taking it after having hardware from a failed lumbar fusion removed. That's when I developed the symptoms, which are very uncomfortable. | F | 47 | 2 days | 8/29/2008 | 3 | Gastroparesis | None | Helped for a few months. Worried it's stopped working. | F | 23 | 4 months | 2/3/2008 |

It works by helping the bladder muscle to squeeze better, thereby improving your ability to urinate. FDA Approval Date: 1984-05-29 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
