About Betmiga 50mg Tablet

MIRABEGRON 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.

MIRABEGRON contains ‘mirabegron’ 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. MIRABEGRON 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.

MIRABEGRON is taken as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole with full glass water. Do not chew, crush or break it. MIRABEGRON may be taken with or without food. Common side-effects of MIRABEGRON are nausea, constipation, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, increased heart rate. Inform your doctor if these side-effects do not go away or get worse.

Do not take MIRABEGRON if you are allergic to any other ingredients present in it. Before taking MIRABEGRON, inform your doctor if you have kidney disease, liver disease, hypertension, urinary retention, angioedema, history of heart rhythm problems (including QT prolongation). Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Inform your doctor. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery as this medicine may cause dizziness.
