About Trofame XR Capsule

Trofame XR Capsule belongs to the class of drugs called antimuscarinics used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. Overactive bladder is a problem with bladder function that causes a sudden urge to urinate. Overactive bladder symptoms include frequent urination, involuntary loss of urine, an urgent and uncontrollable need to urinate, or bedwetting.

Trofame XR Capsule contains Trospium which works by blocking muscarinic receptors on the surface of muscle cells and inhibits the action of acetylcholine (a chemical messenger) that causes contraction of the bladder muscle. Thereby, Trofame XR Capsule relaxes the involuntary muscle (detrusor) in the bladder wall and reduces unstable and involuntary contractions of the bladder, and increases the bladder's capacity to hold urine. Thus, it decreases the need to urinate.

Take Trofame XR Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Trofame XR Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience dry mouth, nausea, stomach pain, indigestion, or constipation. Most of these side effects of Trofame XR Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Trofame XR Capsule or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. Trofame XR Capsule is not recommended for children below 12 years as the safety and effectiveness were not established.  Please consult a doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking Trofame XR Capsule . Do not consume alcohol with Trofame XR Capsule as it may increase the risk of adverse effects. You are recommended to drink plenty of water while taking Trofame XR Capsule to prevent dryness of the mouth. Drive only if your vision is clear after taking Trofame XR Capsule as it may cause blurred vision in some people for a short duration.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Overactive bladder: It is a problem with bladder function that causes a sudden urge to urinate. An overactive bladder causes bladder muscles' involuntary contractions, giving the sensation of an urge to urinate frequently even if the bladder is not full. It mostly occurs in women than in men. An overactive bladder in men may be due to an enlarged prostate gland as it blocks urine flow. Overactive bladder may be caused due to urinary tract infections, drinking too many fluids, bladder stones, taking medicines that increase urine production, alcohol consumption, caffeine or other bladder irritants, or failure to empty the bladder. Overactive bladder symptoms include frequent urination (more than 8 times a day), involuntary loss of urine, an urgent and uncontrollable need to urinate, or bedwetting.
