Detailed Information

How it works

Myrbetriq may work by relaxing the bladder muscle to increase its storage capacity. It activates the beta-3 adrenergic receptors in the bladder, which can help delay the need to urinate.

This action makes it easier to control bladder urges, especially in patients with OAB symptoms.

Clinical applications

Myrbetriq is used in adults with overactive bladder to help manage symptoms such as urgency, frequent urination, and urge incontinence. It may also be used in pediatric patients aged 3 and older, depending on medical guidance.

Because treatment needs may vary, always consult your provider before starting or changing this medication.
