Fifteen women with idiopathic urge incontinence (8 motor and 7 sensory urge incontinence) were treated with a beta 2-adrenoceptor-stimulating agent, terbutaline (Bricanyl) for 3 months. A subjective effect on the symptoms urgency and frequency was found in 14 patients, and 12 patients (80%) became continent. In 6 of 8 cases the detrusor became stable. The drug was generally well tolerated; however, a high incidence of transient side effects were observed. Terbutaline seems to be valuable in the treatment of idiopathic female urge incontinence.
