Darilong 15 Tablet ER

Darilong 15 Tablet ER is a prescription extended-release tablet that contains darifenacin 15 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the antimuscarinic (anticholinergic) class of medicines and is used to help manage overactive bladder symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, and urge incontinence. Darilong 15 Tablet ER is made by Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and comes in a strip/box of 10 tablets.

How it works: Darifenacin in Darilong 15 Tablet ER relaxes the bladder muscle by blocking muscarinic receptors, which helps reduce sudden urges and bladder spasms. As an extended-release tablet, it is designed to deliver the medicine gradually after swallowing.

Darilong 15 Tablet ER is the 15 mg extended-release strength, which is a higher-dose tablet than lower darifenacin strengths and is generally chosen when a doctor feels a patient needs stronger symptom control. Because it is an ER tablet, it releases medicine slowly over time, so it should not be cut, crushed, or chewed; this helps keep the effect steadier throughout the day.

• Overactive bladder
• Urinary urgency
• Frequent urination
• Urge urinary incontinence

• Swallow Darilong 15 Tablet ER whole with water; do not crush, chew, or split it.
• Take it exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day.
• You may take it with or without food unless your doctor gives different instructions.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is close to the next dose; do not double up.
• Do not change to a lower or higher bladder medicine strength on your own.
• Because it is an ER tablet, do not use it in a way that changes how the tablet releases medicine.

Each Darilong 15 Tablet ER contains darifenacin 15 mg per tablet. This strength is typically taken once daily, and the maximum daily dose is usually 15 mg unless a prescriber directs otherwise. Your doctor decides whether Darilong 15 Tablet ER is appropriate based on your symptoms, age, other medicines, and how well you tolerate treatment.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Darifenacin may include:

• Dry mouth, which can be more noticeable with the 15 mg strength
• Constipation
• Blurred vision
• Dizziness
• Indigestion or stomach discomfort
• Dry eyes
• Trouble emptying the bladder or slower urination

• This is a higher-strength 15 mg tablet, so side effects such as dry mouth, constipation, and blurred vision may be more likely than with lower strengths.
• Do not use Darilong 15 Tablet ER if you have untreated urinary retention, stomach or intestinal blockage, or uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma unless your doctor specifically tells you to.
• Use caution if you have liver disease, kidney disease, bladder outlet obstruction, or a history of constipation.
• Alcohol may worsen dizziness or make side effects feel stronger.
• Be careful when driving or operating machinery until you know how Darilong 15 Tablet ER affects you.
• Older adults may be more sensitive to anticholinergic effects such as confusion, constipation, and dry mouth.
• Tell your prescriber if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding before using this tablet.

• Other anticholinergic medicines can increase side effects such as dry mouth, constipation, and confusion.
• Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may raise darifenacin levels and increase side effects.
• Medicines that affect heart rhythm may need closer monitoring if used together.
• Some antidepressants and antifungal medicines can interact with darifenacin.
• Other bladder medicines may change how well Darilong 15 Tablet ER works or increase urinary retention risk.
