*Not an actual patient.
Questions whether his BPH treatment is enough to relieve his OAB symptoms
Carl was tired of interruptions from his urinary symptoms. When urgency continued despite BPH treatment, he knew he needed to talk to his doctor about how he was feeling.
Do you see patients like Carl in your practice? GEMTESA may help.
