About Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's

Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's belongs to the group of medications called ‘urinary antagonists' or 'antispasmodics' primarily used in the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. Overactive bladder is a condition in which the urinary bladder muscles constrict uncontrollably, thereby causing an urgent need to urinate, frequent urination, and inability to control urination. Besides this, Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's is also used for the treatment of neurogenic detrusor overactivity (a bladder control condition caused by neurological problems) in children 2 years and above.

Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's contains ‘Solifenacin’ that relaxes the urinary bladder muscles which in turn decreases the activity of the overactive bladder. In an overactive bladder, muscle contractions occur before the full expansion of the bladder causing the patient to have frequent urges to urinate. Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's stops these sudden contractions of urinary bladder muscles thereby enabling control over urination. Thus, it increases the amount and volume of urination that can be held by your bladder.

Do not take Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's if you are allergic to ‘solifenacin’ or any other ingredients present in it. Before taking Soltaden-5 Tablet 10's, inform your doctor if you have kidney disease, liver disease, bladder blockage, myasthenia gravis (a muscle disease), stomach or bowel problems (including constipation), glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye causing loss of vision), or a history of heart rhythm problems (including QT prolongation).
