Tasoltripis a combination of two different medications called solifenacina and tamsulosina in a tablet. Solifenacina belongs to a group of medications called anticholinergics and tamsulosina belongs to a group of medications called alpha-blockers.

Tasoltripis used in men to treat both moderate to severe filling symptoms and emptying symptoms of the lower urinary tract caused by problems related to the bladder and by an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia).Tasoltripis used when previous treatment with monotherapy for this condition did not alleviate symptoms sufficiently.

When the prostate becomes enlarged, urinary problems (emptying symptoms) such as delayed urination (difficulty starting urination), reduced urine flow (weak stream), dripping, and sensation of incomplete bladder emptying may occur. At the same time, the bladder is also affected and contracts spontaneously at times when urination is not desired. This causes filling symptoms such as changes in bladder sensation, urgency (a strong and sudden desire to urinate without warning) and having to urinate more frequently.

Solifenacina reduces involuntary bladder contractions and increases the amount of urine that the bladder can store. Therefore, you can expect to wait longer before having to go to the bathroom. Tamsulosina allows urine to pass more easily through the urethra and facilitates urination.

Do not use Tasoltrip if:

• You are allergic to solifenacin or tamsulosin or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
• You are undergoing renal dialysis.
• You have severe liver disease.
• You have severe kidney disease and are being treated with medications that can reduce the elimination of solifenacin/tamsulosin from the body (for example, ketoconazole, ritonavir, nelfinavir, itraconazole). Your doctor or pharmacist will inform you if this is the case.
• You have moderate liver disease and are being treated with medications that can reduce the elimination of solifenacin/tamsulosin from the body (for example, ketoconazole, ritonavir, nelfinavir, itraconazole). Your doctor or pharmacist will inform you if this is the case.
• You have a severe stomach or intestinal condition (including toxic megacolon, a complication associated with ulcerative colitis).
• You have a muscle condition called myasthenia gravis, which can cause extreme weakness in certain muscles.
• You have increased pressure in the eyes (glaucoma), with gradual loss of vision.
• You experience dizziness due to a decrease in blood pressure when changing position (sitting or standing); this is known as orthostatic hypotension.

Inform your doctor if you think you have any of these conditions.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to useTasoltripif:

• You have difficulty eliminating liquid (urinary retention).
• You have any obstruction of the digestive system.
• You are at risk of decreased activity of the digestive system (gastrointestinal motility). Your doctor will inform you if this is the case.
• You have a hiatal hernia or stomach burning and/or are taking medications that can cause or worsen esophagitis.
• You have a certain type of nervous system disease (autonomic neuropathy).
• You have severe kidney disease.
• You have moderate liver disease.

Regular medical check-ups are necessary to monitor the development of the condition being treated.

Solifenacin/tamsulosinmay affect blood pressure, which can cause dizziness, drowsiness, or rarely, fainting (orthostatic hypotension). You should sit or lie down if you experience any of these symptoms until they have disappeared.

If you are scheduled to undergo eye surgery due to cataracts or increased pressure in the eyes (glaucoma), please inform your ophthalmologist that you have previously used, are using, or plan to usethis medication. The specialist will then take the necessary precautions regarding medication and surgical techniques. Ask your doctor if you should or should not postpone or interrupt the use of this medication when undergoing eye surgery for cataracts or increased pressure in the eye (glaucoma).

Children and adolescents

Do not administer this medication to children and adolescents.

Use ofTasoltripwith other medications

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have used recently, or may need to use any other medication.

It is especially important to inform your doctor if you are using:

• Medications such as ketoconazole, erythromycin, ritonavir, nelfinavir, itraconazole, verapamil, diltiazem, and paroxetine that reduce the rate at which solifenacin/hydrochloride tamsulosin is eliminated from the body.
• Other anticholinergic medications, as the effects and adverse effects of both medications can be intensified if you are taking two medications of the same type.
• Cholinergic medications, as they can reduce the effect of solifenacin/tamsulosin.
• Medications such as metoclopramide and cisapride, which can accelerate the functioning of the digestive system. Solifenacin/tamsulosin can reduce their effect.
• Other alpha-blockers, as they can cause an undesirable decrease in blood pressure.
• Medications such as bisphosphonates, which can cause or exacerbate inflammation of the esophagus (esophagitis).

Use ofTasoltripwith food and drinks

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicological Information Service, phone 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested.

In case of overdose, your doctor may treat you with activated charcoal; emergency gastric lavage may be useful if performed within one hour of the overdose. Do not induce vomiting.

The symptoms of overdose may include: dry mouth, dizziness, and blurred vision, seeing things that are not there (hallucinations), over-excitement, convulsions, difficulty breathing, increased heart rate (tachycardia), inability to completely or partially empty the bladder or to urinate (urinary retention), and/or unwanted increase in blood pressure.

If you forget to take Tasoltrip

Take your next solifenacin/tamsulosin tablet as usual. Do not take a double dose to compensate for the missed doses.
