FAQs

URIPIL TABLET relaxes the muscles of the urinary bladder, thereby helps in preventing frequent urination, and excessive or uncontrolled urination. URIPIL TABLET also helps in relieving the associated pain.
URIPIL TABLET causes drowsiness and vision disturbances. So, drive only if you are alert and omit driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy or drowsy.
Dry mouth could be a side-effect of URIPIL TABLET. Limiting caffeine intake, avoiding smoking and mouthwashes containing alcohol, drinking water regularly, and chewing sugar-free gum/candy might stimulate saliva and prevent drying of the mouth.
URIPIL TABLET may cause stomach upset as a side-effect. To avoid this, take URIPIL TABLET with food.
URIPIL TABLET is safe for use in diabetes patients if prescribed by a doctor. However, if you have lactose intolerance do not take URIPIL TABLET as it may contain lactose as an additive. Besides this, avoid intake of URIPIL TABLET if you have glucose-galactose or Lapp intolerance.
There is some overlap between the symptoms of both OAB and BPH. OAB occurs due to malfunctioning of the nerves that trigger uncontrolled urinary bladder muscle contractions while the urinary bladder is filling with urine. The main symptom of OAB is a sudden urge to urinate that’s hard to control, which is stressful. On the other hand, BPH occurs due to enlarged prostate gland, which puts pressure on the urinary bladder, thereby blocking urine with pain.
