Urilax Tablet 100 mg is a prescription medication containing Flavoxate Hydrochloride, a smooth muscle relaxant used to relieve urinary tract discomfort. It is particularly effective in managing symptoms of urinary bladder spasm, including frequent urination, urgency, burning, and pain. By acting directly on the smooth muscles of the urinary tract, Urilax helps patients achieve symptomatic relief, improving their quality of life.

Flavoxate Hydrochloride works by relaxing the detrusor muscle of the bladder and reducing involuntary contractions. This results in decreased urinary urgency and frequency, while alleviating painful spasms. Urilax is widely prescribed for conditions like cystitis, prostatitis, urethritis, and other disorders associated with bladder irritation.

• Management of dysuria (painful urination), urgency, and frequency associated with urinary tract disorders

Therapeutic Class

Urinary antispasmodic

Pharmacology

Flavoxate Hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Urilax, exerts direct smooth muscle relaxant action on the urinary tract. It inhibits the muscarinic action of acetylcholine on the bladder, reducing detrusor muscle contractions. Additionally, flavoxate demonstrates mild analgesic and local anesthetic properties, contributing to relief from urinary pain and irritation.

After oral administration, flavoxate is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, with peak plasma concentrations achieved within 1–2 hours. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted primarily through urine. By reducing involuntary bladder contractions, Urilax helps restore normal bladder function and relieves distressing urinary symptoms.

Dosage and Administration

• The recommended dose for adults is 100 mg taken orally three to four times daily.
