Mirabegron Teva is used to treat symptoms of overactive bladder in adults who:
- suddenly need to empty their bladder (called urgency).
- need to empty their bladder more often than normal (called increased urination frequency).
- are unable to control when to empty their bladder (called urge incontinence).
