IMPORTANCE: There is strong evidence for long-term cognitive effects with anticholinergic use. Differences in insurance coverage of anticholinergics and beta-3 agonists hinder individualization of overactive bladder (OAB) treatment. OBJECTIVES: The aims of the study were to assess individual and family health insurance plan coverage for select OAB medications and to compare coverage of preferred medications to those with a greater risk of cognitive dysfunction. STUDY DESIGN: This cross-sectional study analyzed formularies for the top 7 U...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: An overactive bladder (OAB) is primarily managed with behavioural therapy and using anticholinergics and beta-3 agonists. Reports have shown that the use of anticholinergics by OAB patients was associated with an increased risk of new-onset dementia compared with those using beta-3 agonists. This study compares the risks of dementia among patients with an OAB starting on a beta-3 agonist alone, an anticholinergic alone, or a combination treatment. METHODS: Using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database, we studied a nationwide population cohort comprising patients newly diagnosed with an OAB who initiated their OAB medications between 2015 and 2020...

PURPOSE: To assess the prescribing practices for overactive bladder (OAB) pharmacotherapy based on the prescription trend analysis across different specialties of India. METHOD: s: IQVIA (Quintiles and IMS Health) secondary sales audit (SSA), as well as a prescription audit for antimuscarinics and beta-3 adrenoceptor agonists (mirabegron) from 2014 to 2021, were analyzed. The data includes SSA data of various antimuscarinics like solifenacin, oxybutynin, tolterodine, darifenacin, trospium and mirabegron change in the prescription trend of antimuscarinics and mirabegron across different specialties; prescribers overlap analysis for solifenacin and mirabegron among Indian urologists were also analyzed...

BACKGROUND: Around 16% of adults have symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB; urgency with frequency and/or urge incontinence), with prevalence increasing with age. Anticholinergic drugs are commonly used to treat this condition. This is an update of a Cochrane Review first published in 2002 and last updated in 2006. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of anticholinergic drugs compared with placebo or no treatment for treating overactive bladder syndrome in adults. SEARCH METHODS: We searched the Cochrane Incontinence Specialised Register, which contains trials identified from the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, MEDLINE In-Process, MEDLINE Epub Ahead of Print, ClinicalTrials...

OBJECTIVES: Antimuscarinic medications are the first-line treatments for overactive bladder, the most common form of bladder dysfunction. Their primary action is thought to block detrusor muscarinic receptors. It is unclear, however, if these therapeutics have actions on other tissues within the lower urinary tract. This study assessed whether clinical antimuscarinics have a functional impact on urothelium with lamina propria (U&LP) tissue. METHODS: Strips of porcine detrusor and U&LP were mounted in carbogen-gassed Krebs-bicarbonate solution at 37°C...

BACKGROUND: Few studies have addressed whether anticholinergic (AC) medications for overactive bladder (OAB) cause cognitive decline in individuals with existing cognitive impairment, and whether the APOE ε4 gene increases this risk. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether OAB AC use is associated with a clinically relevant change in cognitive measures among adults with normal and abnormal cognition. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: This was a retrospective cohort study using data from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center...

BACKGROUND: Antimuscarinic (AM) and beta-3-agonist (B3A) treatment are the standard first line pharmacological treatment used to manage overactive bladder (OAB) patients. Aim of our study was to analyze real-life data of adverse events related to AMs and B3A reported on Eudra-Vigilance (EV) database. METHODS: EV database is the system for managing and analyzing information on suspected adverse reactions to medicines which have been authorized or being studied in clinical trials in the European Economic Area (EEA)...

PURPOSE: We analyzed the relationship between use of anticholinergic drugs to treat overactive bladder (OAB) and risk of incident dementia in older patients, overall and for each drug separately. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted a nested case-control study using the French National Medical-Administrative Database. We identified incident dementia cases and controls from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018 in individuals aged ≥60 years. Controls were matched 5:1 to cases by date of case diagnosis (index date), age, sex, and income...

INTRODUCTION: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a chronic condition highly prevalent in children and causing bothersome symptoms. It is often associated with deterioration of quality of life and can be devastating for patients and their families. Prompt initiation of conservative measures should be the backbone of treatment. When conservative management fails, pharmacological options must be considered. AREAS COVERED: Although antimuscarinics are considered the mainstay of pharmacological treatment for OAB, only two agents are currently approved for the pediatric population...

BACKGROUND: The differential risk of incident dementia associated with receiving various overactive bladder (OAB) drugs is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the association of antimuscarinic OAB drug (exposure), compared with a β-3 agonist (mirabegron), and incident dementia. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A population-based nested case-control study was conducted in patients treated with OAB medications in Ontario, Canada. A total of 11 392 patients aged ≥66 yr with a new diagnosis of dementia between 2010 and 2017, and 29 881 age- and sex-matched controls without dementia were included in the study...

OBJECTIVE: Historical and current view on the therapy of overactive bladder. METHODS: This review summarizes the historical approach and current therapy of overactive bladder. The articles were gathered from Pubmed and Scopus databases. Studies published before December 2020 were used for the review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Overactive bladder is a condition that quite a lot reduces the quality of life of our patients. Our therapeutic approach starts with non-pharmacological treatment, such as pelvic floor exercises...
