What is Gemtesa?

Gemtesa is manufactured by Urovant Sciences, Inc. It has FDA approval (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency in adults.

Vibegron works by relaxing a certain bladder muscle (detrusor, a smooth muscle in the wall of the bladder) which helps the bladder hold more urine and lessens symptoms of overactive bladder.

What doses of Gemtesa are available?

Gemtesa is available in tablet form, in the following doses: 75 mg.

The recommended dose is one 75 mg tablet once daily. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water, with or without food. Tablets may be crushed and mixed with applesauce.

Always speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
