摘要：
Urinary incontinence is a common and distressing condition that is known to adversely affect quality of life. Overactive bladder is the term used to describe the symptom complex of urinary frequency and urgency, with or without urge incontinence. Drug therapy, in addition to behavioral modification, remains integral in the management of women with overactive bladder, and the development of new drugs, treatment regimens and methods of delivery should improve patient compliance and acceptability. This article critically reviews the current pharmacological treatment of overactive bladder in addition to providing a rationale for treatment.
