    Vesicare anyone?

    I was just given vesicare by my neuro. Just looking for others experiences with it. What about any side effects?

    I take Vesicare. The only side effect I've noticed has been a dry mouth. I have a dry mouth anyway without the Vesicare, but Vesicare makes it worse.

    I use an oral moisturizing gel and a toothpaste that is supposed to help with mouth dryness.

      didn't work for me

      I was on Vesicare before I was diagnosed with MS... before it was even a consideration... didn't work for me. I can't even tell you know what meds I have been on for bladder issues, but right now 8 mg of Toviaz only helps.... I always wear a poise pad... been to the urologist and he was really no help. Once I started to pay attention to all the Vesicare comercials, it did not really meet my needs... I didn't have leaky pipes... but when I gotta go I gotta go... right then.

      Good luck. I hope it works for you!!

        I believe it works like the other Over Active Bladder medications. If you go to drugs.com and search for "Overactive Bladder" you will find a list of medications.

          Took Vesicare before MS diagnosis after Detrol stopped working for night-time OAB. Vesicare worked well and actually helped "re-train" my bladder. I was able to stop the Vesicare and now I don't get up 10 or 12 times during the night - only 2 or 3. I would definitely take it again if I needed it and didn't have any noticeable side effects.
