Toviaz (TOE-vee-az) and Gelnique (gel-NEEK) will compete in a crowded market of overactive bladder drugs

June 2009

Toviaz (TOE-vee-az) and Gelnique (gel-NEEK) will compete in a crowded market of overactive bladder drugs.

There are eleven of these now...including different forms of oxybutynin (Ditropan, etc), tolterodine (Detrol), darifenacin (Enablex), trospium (Sanctura), and solifenacin (Vesicare).

Toviaz (fesoterodine) is similar to Detrol LA (tolterodine). They work the same and have similar side effects at the same 4 mg dose...and both cost about $140 per month.
