Contessa manufacturing lied and said that they could give me financial help with my $100 copay but that they couldn't look into it until my doctor actually sent them a prescription once they receive the prescription they told me no there's no financial help you have to pay the $100 copay. I was lied to I tried to verify several times before I contacted my doctor if they would give me help. They ke...

Gemtessa significantly reduced urination but caused swelling in my feet. Even with taking Gemtessa daily, had major urine accidents through pads, underwear and pants. I am done with this medication.

I cannot tell that this medicine has slowed down my urge incontinence at all. I am SO frustrated.

When I first began using this medication, I found relief from my OAB. Now, about one year later, I think it is not working as well. My symptoms have returned and I am back to using pads and multiple layers of undies.

Great response on second day. I take a combination blood pressure pill with a diuretic. I’m able to find a bathroom in time and eventually stopped wearing incontinent products depending on my location.

While this medication did work to stop my OAB symptoms, after taking it for 2 weeks my whole body and scalp were itching. I began losing TONS of hair every day. Like handfuls of hair were suddenly falling out. As soon as I realized it was the medication, I stopped taking it and my hair loss also slowed down almost immediately. Be very careful with this medication!
