Yes, Vesicare (solifenacin) is classified as an anticholinergic medication. It works by blocking the action of acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors in the bladder, which helps reduce involuntary bladder contractions and alleviate symptoms of overactive bladder. This mechanism helps improve urinary control and reduce urgency and frequency of urination.
