1. What is Mirabegron Cinfamed and what is it used for

Mirabegron Cinfamed contains the active substance mirabegron. It is a medication that relaxes the smooth muscle of the bladder (called a beta-3 adrenergic receptor agonist), which reduces the symptoms associated with an overactive bladder and reduces neurogenic detrusor overactivity.

Mirabegron is used to:

• treat the symptoms of a condition called overactive bladder in adults.

These symptoms include: sudden need to empty your bladder (called urgency), having to empty your bladder more often than normal (called increased urinary frequency), and being unable to control when to empty your bladder (called urge incontinence).

• treat a condition called neurogenic detrusor overactivity in children aged 3 years and older. Neurogenic detrusor overactivity is a condition in which there are involuntary contractions of the bladder due to a birth defect or nerve damage that controls the bladder. If left untreated, neurogenic detrusor overactivity can cause damage to the bladder and/or kidneys. This medication is used to increase the amount of urine that the bladder can hold and reduce urine loss.

2. What you need to know before taking Mirabegron Cinfamed

Do not take Mirabegron Cinfamed

• if you are allergic to mirabegron or any of the other ingredients of this medication (listed in section 6).
• if you have uncontrolled high blood pressure.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take mirabegron:

• if you have problems emptying your bladder or have a weak urine stream, or if you are taking other medications for the treatment of overactive bladder or neurogenic detrusor overactivity, such as anticholinergic medications.
• if you have kidney or liver problems. Your doctor may need to reduce the dose or tell you not to take mirabegron, especially if you are taking other medications such as itraconazole, ketoconazole (for fungal infections), ritonavir (for HIV/AIDS), or clarithromycin (for bacterial infections). Inform your doctor about the medications you are taking.
• if you have a known abnormality in your ECG (heart study) such as a prolonged QT interval, or if you are taking any medication known to cause such an abnormality, such as:

• medications used for heart rhythm disorders, such as quinidine, sotalol, procainamide, ibutilide, flecainide, dofetilide, and amiodarone;
• • medications used for allergic rhinitis;
  • antipsychotic medications (for mental illnesses) such as thioridazine, mesoridazine, haloperidol, and chlorpromazine;
  • anti-infective agents such as pentamidine, moxifloxacin, erythromycin, and clarithromycin.

Mirabegron may cause your blood pressure to increase or worsen if you have a history of high blood pressure. It is recommended that your doctor check your blood pressure while you are taking this medication.

Children and adolescents

Do not give this medication to children and adolescents under 18 years of age for the treatment of overactive bladder, as the safety and efficacy of mirabegron in this population have not been established.

This medication should not be used in children under 3 years of age for the treatment of neurogenic detrusor overactivity.

Other medications and Mirabegron Cinfamed

• Tell your doctor if you are using dabigatran etexilate (a medication used to reduce the risk of stroke or systemic embolism in patients with irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) and additional risk factors). Your doctor may need to adjust the dose of this medication.
