Uripan XR tablets are an advanced medication specifically designed to provide sustained relief and effective control of the bothersome symptoms associated with overactive bladder (OAB). This medication contains the active ingredient oxybutynin 10 mg, but in a unique extended-release (XR) formulation. This innovative technology allows the medication to be released slowly and steadily throughout the day, minimizing fluctuations in blood levels, contributing to a sustained therapeutic effect, and reducing the potential for some of the side effects associated with immediate-release formulations. Uripan XR is an important treatment option for individuals with OAB, significantly improving their quality of life by reducing the frequent and sudden need to urinate and urge incontinence.
