Contemporary Pharmacotherapy for OAB 2022: Monotherapy and Combined Pharmacotherapy to Optimize Treatment Webcast (2022)

Much has been written and debated about drug treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) over the past 2 decades. Nevertheless, the field continues to evolve. OAB pharmacotherapy remains an area of active investigation, and innovation. The publication of the recently updated AUA/Society of Urodynamics, Female Pelvic Medicine & Urogenital Reconstruction (SUFU) Guideline entitled, “Diagnosis and Treatment of Overactive Bladder (Non-Neurogenic) in Adults,” and the proceedings of the 7th International Consultation on Incontinence, as well as European Association of Urology (EAU) Guidelines have maintained considerable interest in this area amongst researchers and practitioners. This course will describe the physiological and pharmacological underpinnings of modern drug treatment of overactive bladder, review currently available agents and discuss agents in development.
