Brief Answer:
Both drugs belong to the same group, and either one of them will suffice

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. The reason being that both enables (darifenacin) and vesicle (solifenacin) belong to the same group, have the same effect, and need not both be given.

Are you sure your doctor didn't write enablex OR vesicare? If not, either way, using either one should suffice sir, both are not required.

I hope you find my response helpful and informative. Please do not hesitate to write to me in the meantime for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.
