Abstract

Recent pharmacologic treatment for detrusor overactivity has resulted in more favorable side effect profiles, not only because of the use of different drug delivery systems for older drugs but perhaps also due to the improved bladder selectivity of newer antimuscarinic agents. These developments translate into higher patient compliance and better long-term results with the newer agents over generic immediate-release oxybutynin for the treatment of the overactive bladder.
