Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Pharmacologic therapy is the primary treatment for overactive bladder (OAB).
  • New antimuscarinic agents have emerged for OAB management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate solifenacin succinate as a novel, once-daily treatment for overactive bladder.
  • To assess the efficacy and tolerability of solifenacin succinate in OAB patients.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical trials were conducted to assess solifenacin succinate's effects.
  • Pharmacokinetic studies investigated drug distribution and selectivity.

Main Results:

  • Solifenacin succinate effectively increases functional bladder capacity.
  • The agent significantly decreases urinary urgency, frequency, and incontinence.

  • Pharmacokinetic studies indicated bladder selectivity, correlating with low incidence of dry mouth and constipation.
  • Conclusions:

    • Solifenacin succinate is an effective and well-tolerated treatment option for overactive bladder.
    • Its bladder selectivity contributes to a favorable side effect profile, particularly reduced dry mouth and constipation.
