Tolterodine tartrate ER 4 mg primarily treats overactive bladder (OAB). This medication helps reduce the urgency and frequency of urination associated with OAB.
Symptoms relieved include frequent urination, sudden urges to urinate, and nighttime urination (nocturia). The extended-release (ER) formulation provides a longer duration of action, requiring less frequent dosing.
Important Note: Tolterodine is not a cure for OAB, but rather manages its symptoms. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for dosage and duration of treatment. Consult your physician if symptoms worsen or persist.
While primarily used for OAB, it may sometimes be used off-label to manage other conditions involving urinary urgency and frequency, but this should be under a doctor’s supervision and based on individual patient needs and assessment.
