The role of medication
Medication is rarely used for stress incontinence. Effective medication is available for urge incontinence and targets neurotransmitters in the bladder smooth muscle to reduce unwanted bladder contractions (see Box 16.7). Dry mouth and constipation are common side effects with these drugs. The use of medication in voiding difficulties is limited to the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate). These drugs work by reducing the tone of the prostatic smooth muscle (thus improving urinary flow) or by shrinking the prostate. Examples are shown in Box 16.7.
