📎 UroRelief™ Flavoxate 200 mg Tablet

Smooth Muscle Relaxant for Urinary Tract Discomfort

🔍 Product Overview

UroRelief™ Flavoxate 200 mg is a urinary antispasmodic agent formulated to alleviate painful symptoms associated with urinary tract disorders, including bladder irritation, urgency, frequency, and incontinence. This medication works by relaxing smooth muscles in the urinary tract, reducing spasms and easing discomfort without acting as an antibiotic.

💊 Active Ingredient

• Flavoxate Hydrochloride – 200 mg per tablet

Flavoxate is a synthetic anticholinergic and smooth muscle relaxant, targeting spasms in the bladder, urethra, and surrounding structures. It has both direct myotropic action (acting on the muscle fibers) and moderate anticholinergic effects, making it effective in conditions characterized by involuntary contractions of the urinary tract.

⚙️ Mechanism of Action

1. Smooth Muscle Relaxation
   Flavoxate acts directly on the smooth muscles of the genitourinary tract, reducing contractions and spasms that cause pain, urgency, and frequency.

2. Anticholinergic Properties
   By mildly blocking muscarinic receptors, it reduces detrusor muscle overactivity, often seen in bladder disorders.

3. Pain and Urgency Relief
   The muscle-relaxing effect helps reduce the symptoms of dysuria (painful urination), suprapubic discomfort, and urinary urgency.
