I have been on Vesicare for around 7 months now and finally got my life back at last. They worked like a dream and most of my symptoms disappeared. A fortnight ago I picked up my monthly prescription and after a couple of days of taking them from the new pack, all my dreaded symptoms came back. Feels like I am taking dummy pills. Been back to GP and chemist and they say it's just a coincidence!! Been prescribed anti bios for now from my doc whilst awaiting u.a sample results. Could counterfeit medication get though to our dispensing chemists I wonder or would a different brand of this stop working? Desperate for answers. ## Vesicare has changed my life for the past 3 years since I have been on it. However, my last month's tablets came in a different package and all my symptoms c...

I have 10 mg Vesicare pills and I only need to take 5 mg. I would like to cut them in half. They are not scored. I know that I can break them with my nails. Do pharmacies sell pill cutters. Thank you. ## As long as a medication is not time released and your doctor/pharmacist has not instructed you otherwise, then it is safe to divide pills. You should double check the tablets you have, just to be certain, with a pharmacist. Have you tried contacting them? As to pill cutters, yes they do sell them, there are many different ones available, price depends on the type you want.

I've just found out that I'm 5 weeks pregnant and am have been taking Vesicare Solifenacin. I have stopped immediately but am now worried that I may have caused some damage. I have read that some babies have been born with defects like muscular, hearing and am now extremelly worried. If anyone has any info at all it would be hugely appreciated. Many thanks ## The U.S. FDA lists this medication as not being known to cause any severe issues, the only reported problem is lower birth weight. Most other studies involved rats, and lab animals, not humans, so other issues have not been attributed to it being taken in pregnant humans. It should be noted that it has not been studied in a significant number of pregnant women, but in those that have taken it, the FDA has not noted any incr...

I've got to take the above meds and I'm contemplating as they lead to weight gain. I've always been very active but due to my condition at the moment I'm unable. Weight gain at this stage is something that will push me over the edge. Please is there something that I can take to counter act as I need all of them but will rather just live with pain the need for the toilet instead of gaining weight.lucy ## Hello, Lulu! How are you doing? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. The weight gain is most likely due to the Lyrica, it is an anticonvulsant that can also help with certain types of nerve pain and this class of medications is well known to cause weight gain. Have you spoken to your doctor? There may be a different medication you can try to see if it d...
