Overview

Flavoxate hydrochloride, a derivative of flavone, is a genitourinary antispasmodic.

Flavoxate hydrochloride is used as an antispasmodic to provide symptomatic relief of dysuria, urgency, nocturia, suprapubic pain, frequency, and incontinence that may occur in patients with cystitis, prostatitis, urethritis, urethrocystitis, or urethrotrigonitis. Flavoxate therapy is not indicated as definitive treatment of these conditions but is compatible with drugs used for the treatment of urinary tract infections. Flavoxate has not been shown to be more effective in the treatment of these conditions than antimuscarinic agents.
