[Drug therapy of urge incontinence in the female]

In this study we urodynamically examined 105 women suffering from urge incontinence before and 4 weeks after treatment with various drugs. The subjective and objective findings in the 3 patients' groups are compared. The results showed that the patients treated by spasmolytics (Oxyphenonium bromatum/Hexasonium jodatum/Papaverin) had the lowest rate of side effects in comparison with the women treated by calcium channel blockers and spasmolytics (Diltiazem/Oxyphenonium bromatum) and those with imipramine therapy. But the success rate of the first group was the lowest, too.
