What is this medicine?
URIDER D Tablet is a combination of Tolterodine (an antimuscarinic agent) and Dutasteride (a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor). This medicine is used to treat overactive bladder symptoms like frequent or urgent urination and urinary incontinence in men who also have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)—an enlarged prostate. It helps by relaxing bladder muscles and shrinking the prostate to improve urine flow and reduce symptoms.
