Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER

Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER is a prescription medicine that contains 4 mg of tolterodine in each extended-release capsule. It belongs to the antimuscarinic (anticholinergic) class and is used to help relieve overactive bladder symptoms such as urgent need to urinate, frequent urination, and urine leakage. The Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER is designed to release medicine slowly over time for once-daily use. It is manufactured by Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and supplied as a strip/box of 10 capsules.

How it works: Tolterodine in Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER blocks certain nerve signals that tell the bladder muscle to contract too often. By calming those signals, the capsule can help the bladder store urine better and reduce sudden urges and leaks.

Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER is the higher-strength version compared with Roliten OD 2 mg Capsule ER, so it may be chosen for patients who need stronger symptom control after a doctor has evaluated them. Because it is an extended-release 4 mg capsule, it is not meant to be split or taken like an immediate-release medicine, and its effects are intended to last through the day. A clinician may select this strength when a lower dose is not enough or when the once-daily extended-release format is preferred.

• Overactive bladder
• Urinary urgency
• Frequent urination

• Swallow Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER whole with water; do not crush, chew, or open the capsule.
• Take it exactly as prescribed, usually once daily, and try to take it at the same time each day.
• It may be taken with or without food unless your doctor gives different instructions.
• Do not take an extra capsule if you miss a dose; follow your prescriber’s directions.
• If you have trouble swallowing capsules, ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice rather than altering the capsule.

Each Roliten OD 4 mg Capsule ER provides 4 mg of tolterodine in an extended-release form. This strength is typically taken once daily, but the exact schedule depends on the doctor’s prescription and your medical condition. Do not take more than prescribed; your doctor decides whether this 4 mg strength is appropriate for you and whether any dose adjustment is needed.

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