Indications & Uses
Uripay is indicated for:
Pharmacology
Flavoxate works by directly blocking muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in organs supplied by the parasympathetic nervous system. Through this anticholinergic (parasympatholytic) effect, it relaxes bladder smooth muscle, which cuts down how often patients feel the urge to urinate, reduces episodes and intensity of urge incontinence, and helps with urinary retention by allowing more urine to be held per void.
Dosage Reference

Adults:
For adults and children over 12 years, the usual dose of Flavoxate Hydrochloride is 100 to 200 mg taken 3 or 4 times a day. The dose may be lowered as symptoms improve. In patients with an infection, treatment is usually continued for as long as antibacterial or anti-infective medicines are being given. Patients with long-standing bladder symptoms may need maintenance treatment over an extended period to get the best results.
