Mirabegron 25mg — Uses and Benefits

Mirabegron 25mg is mainly prescribed for people suffering from overactive bladder symptoms.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Sudden, strong urge to urinate that is hard to control
• Frequent urination during the day and night
• Involuntary leakage of urine linked to urgency (urge incontinence)

HOW IT WORKS

• It relaxes the detrusor (bladder) muscle by acting on beta-3 receptors
• This allows the bladder to store more urine before the urge to pass it occurs

• It is not for urinary tract infections
• It is not a treatment for stress incontinence caused by physical exertion, coughing, or sneezing
• It is not used to treat prostate enlargement directly, though it may be combined with other medicines in some cases
