CompositionFloslo 5 Tablet is used to treat symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB), such as frequent urination, urgency, and incontinence. This medicine contains Solifenacin 5 mg, which belongs to the class of antimuscarinic agents. It works by relaxing the bladder muscles, which increases the amount of urine the bladder can hold and helps improve bladder control and the overall quality of life for patients suffering from OAB.

Floslo 5 Tablet contains Solifenacin (5 mg) which works in the body as follows:
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonist: Solifenacin works by competing with acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, blocking its action on muscarinic receptors present in the bladder muscles.
Relaxation of Bladder Muscles: By blocking acetylcholine, solifenacin helps in relaxing the muscles of the bladder. This relaxation increases the capacity of the bladder and reduces the intensity and frequency of involuntary bladder contractions.
Improvement in OAB Symptoms: The increased bladder capacity and reduced involuntary contractions, thanks to solifenacin, result in an improvement in urinary urgency, frequency, and incontinence typical of OAB.
