What is MIRAGO S 25 MG TABLET used for?

MIRAGO S 25 MG TABLET is used to manage the symptoms of an overactive bladder (OAB) in adults. These symptoms can include a sudden, strong urge to urinate, increased frequency of urination, and an inability to control urination, which may lead to involuntary urine leakage.

How does MIRAGO S 25 MG TABLET work?

MIRAGO S 25 MG TABLET contains a combination of two active ingredients: Mirabegron and Solifenacin. Mirabegron is a beta-3 adrenoceptor agonist that works by relaxing the smooth muscles surrounding the bladder, which increases the bladder's capacity to hold urine and helps control urine flow. Solifenacin is a muscarinic receptor antagonist that also relaxes the bladder muscles by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a chemical messenger that causes bladder muscle contractions. This dual action helps to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and allows you to wait longer before needing to urinate.
