Myrbetriq is a prescription medication used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) in adults with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency. It can be used alone or in combination with solifenacin succinate. The active ingredient, mirabegron, works as a beta-3 adrenergic agonist that relaxes the detrusor smooth muscle during the bladder storage phase, increasing bladder capacity.

Brand vs. generic Myrbetriq (mirabegron)

Brand-name Myrbetriq and generic mirabegron both contain the active ingredient mirabegron and are available in 25 mg and 50 mg strengths. Brand Myrbetriq may also be sold internationally under the name Betmiga.

Both versions work in the same way and are held to the same quality and safety standards. Generic mirabegron provides the same therapeutic effect as the brand-name medication, with the main difference being price. The generic option typically offers substantial cost savings compared to brand-name Myrbetriq.
