Begin with a 2 mg dose once daily. Your doctor may increase this to 4 mg once daily, depending on your response and individual needs.
Adjusting Your Dose
Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Don’t change your dose without consulting them first.
- Dosage increase: Your doctor will monitor your response closely if they decide to increase your dose. Missed dose: Take the missed dose as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next dose. Never double your dose to make up for a missed one. Stopping treatment: Stop taking Tolterodine only as directed by your doctor; abrupt cessation may be inadvisable.
Taking the Medication
Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. This ensures a consistent release of the medication over time. Take the medication at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your system. Take this medication with or without food.
Potential Side Effects
Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision. Inform your doctor if any side effects bother you or become severe. They can help manage side effects or adjust your treatment.
