1. What is Solifenacina Aristo and what is it used for

The active ingredient of Solifenacina Aristo belongs to the group of anticholinergics. These medications are used to reduce the activity of an overactive bladder. This allows you to have more time before needing to go to the bathroom and increases the amount of urine that your bladder can hold.

Solifenacina Aristo is used to treat the symptoms of overactive bladder syndrome. These symptoms include: having a strong and sudden need to urinate without prior warning, having to urinate frequently or having urine leakage due to not making it to the bathroom on time.
