How GEMTESA Addresses OAB Symptoms

Overactive bladder is characterized by a sudden, compelling urge to urinate that is difficult to defer, often leading to involuntary leakage (urge urinary incontinence), and frequent urination throughout the day and night. GEMTESA (vibegron) works to alleviate these specific symptoms, aiming to improve bladder control and reduce the frequency and urgency of urination.

As a once-daily oral medication, GEMTESA (vibegron) offers a straightforward approach to managing the persistent challenges of OAB.
