Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Since vesicare is salifenocin and most potent antispasmodic for over active bladder.
Constipation is one of the most common feature among old age.
So please don't get tension , use plenty of fluid as water or juice with fiber food.
Phenophathelien tablets available as chewable tablets, Chew 1/2 or 1 according to need.
Good luck.
