Jitomira 50 Tablet (10 Tab)

Jitomira 50 Tablet Overview:

Jitomira 50 Tablet is a urological medication used to manage the symptoms of Overactive Bladder (OAB) symptoms.

Common symptoms of Overactive Bladder (OAB) include a sudden and strong urge to urinate that is difficult to control, frequent urination throughout the day or night, and urge incontinence, where urine may leak unintentionally before reaching the toilet due to an intense urge to pass urine.

The active ingredient, Mirabegron, belongs to a class of drugs known as beta-3 adrenergic agonists. It works by stimulating specific receptors to help the bladder muscle relax while it fills. This relaxation increases the amount of urine that bladder can hold and significantly reduces the sudden, frequent urge to urinate.

Always take Jitomira 50 Tablet exactly as prescribed by your healthcare professional. Regular use may help improve bladder control, reduce frequent nighttime urination, and lower the discomfort or embarrassment caused by sudden urinary urgency or accidental leakage.

Composition:

Each film coated extended-release tablet contains- Mirabegron: 50 mg.

Colours: Ferric Oxide Yellow, and Titanium Dioxide.
