FAQs
How long does it take for Torq SR 4 Capsule to show its effect?
Your symptoms may start improving within 1 week of starting Torq SR 4 Capsule. Maximum benefits may be seen after 5-8 weeks of treatment. To maintain this improvement, your doctor may prescribe this medicine to you for a long term of up to 24 months.
What class of drug is Torq SR 4 Capsule? Is it a diuretic?
Torq SR 4 Capsule belongs to a class of medicines known as muscarinic receptor blockers. Torq SR 4 Capsule is not a diuretic, it is a urinary antispasmodic. This means that it relaxes the urinary bladder, decreasing spasm of the bladder wall. This further provides better control upon the release of urine and also increases storage volume of the bladder.
Can I just stop taking Torq SR 4 Capsule?
Torq SR 4 Capsule does not cure your condition but helps to control the symptoms of overactive bladder. Do not stop taking this medicine even if you feel better. Your doctor will reassess your condition at regular intervals, like 6 months, to understand the duration for which you need to take Torq SR 4 Capsule.

No, do not crush or chew the tablets. Swallow the whole tablet with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food. Take it exactly as directed by your doctor.
Can Torq SR 4 Capsule be used in children?
When studied in children, Torq SR 4 Capsule did not relieve the symptoms of overactive bladder. Therefore, its use in children is not recommended.
Who should avoid taking Torq SR 4 Capsule?
Patients who have urinary retention (unable to pass urine), have delayed emptying of stomach or blocked intestinal tract (toxic megacolon, ulcerative colitis, pyloric stenosis) or uncontrolled high pressure in the eyes (narrow-angle glaucoma). It should also be avoided by patients who have any muscle disease which causes drooping eyelids, double vision, difficulty in speaking and swallowing, and sometimes muscle weakness in the arms or legs (myasthenia gravis). Patients who are hypersensitive to Tolterodine should avoid it as well.
I am having constipation because of which I want to discontinue Torq SR 4 Capsule. Will I have any harmful effects?
