The clinical effectiveness and safety of terodiline hydrochloride and clenbuterol hydrochloride were studied on 51 patients with neurogenic bladder, stress incontinence, unstable bladder and others, the chief complaints of which were urinary frequency or urinary incontinence. Overall improvement was graded as marked in 6 patients (11.8%), moderate in 20 patients (39.2%), slight in 11 patients (21.6%), unchanged in 13 patients (25.5%) and aggravated in one. The patients impression was "good" or better in 56.9%. There were a total of 13 cases (25.5%) of adverse reactions, namely, 7 cases of finger tremor, 3 cases of dry mouth and others. These reactions disappeared rapidly after the discontinuance of drug administration. The clinical efficacy in the treatment of subjective symptoms was 71.4% for urinary incontinence, 56.4% for diurnal pollakisuria. The examination of lower urethral functions demonstrated a significant (p less than 0.01) increase in bladder capacity at first desire and maximum desire to void. However, we found no significant increase in urethral clossure pressure. The findings of this study suggest that terodiline hydrochloride and clenbuterol hydrochloride are very useful for the treatment of urinary frequency and incontinence.

A clinical trial with the collaboration of 15 department of urology was performed to determine the usefulness of terodiline hydrochloride in 99 patients whose chief complaints were of pollakisuria or incontinence due to neurogenic bladder, psychogenic disease or chronic cystitis. The patients were orally given 24 mg once daily for 4 weeks. The final global improvement rate was 88.5% and the effective rates on subjective symptoms were; 66.2% for diurnal urinary frequency, 68.0% for nocturnal urinary frequency, 68.8% for urinary incontinence and 78.3% for nocturnal enuresis. Even for the cases having mild bladder outlet obstructive disease, the clinical effective rates were good. Mild side effects were observed in 10 patients, which were dry mouth and others. The results obtained from this trial suggest that terodiline hydrochloride may be useful for the treatment of urinary frequency and incontinence caused by detrusor instability.

The clinical effectiveness and safety of propiverine hydrochloride (P-4, 20 mg tablet) were studied on 29 patients with nervous pollakisuria, neurogenic bladder or unstable bladder, whose chief complaints were urinary frequency and/or urinary incontinence. The clinical efficacy was "good" or better in 62.1% and "fair" or better in 86.2%. Patients' impressions were "good" or better in 79.3%. There were a total of 4 cases (13.8%) of adverse reactions, namely, two cases of decreased urinary stream, one dry mouth, and one dizziness. These reactions disappeared rapidly after the completion or discontinuance of drug administration, and therefore, did not constitute significant safety problems. The clinical efficacy in the treatment of subjective symptoms was 74.1% for diurnal pollakisuria, 50.0% for nocturnal pollakisuria, 83.3% for urinary incontinence and 69.0% for urgent feeling of micturition. For objective symptoms, P-4 increased significantly the volume of maximum desire to void (MDV); however it did not increase significantly the residual urine volume. The results of this study suggest that propiverine hydrochloride is very useful for the treatment of urinary frequency and/or incontinence.

The efficacy and safety of long-term administration of oxybutynin hydrochloride in patients with neurogenic bladder and unstable bladder, who complained of urinary frequency, urgency and incontinence, and whose bladder was proved to be uninhibited, reflex, and/or low compliant, were studied at the multi-center hospitals, and the following results were obtained. This study comprised 149 cases but 8 of them were excluded because of the incomplete protocol. Thus, 141 cases (104 neurogenic bladder patients, 33 unstable bladder patients and 4 others) were investigated. The daily dosage of Oxybutynin hydrochloride ranged from 1 to 18 mg, and averaged at 6.6 mg. Since a small daily dosage of 3 mg was administered in 32 cases to examine the minimum effective dosage of the drug, the low average dosage possibly resulted. The clinical optimal dosage seemed to be more than 6.6 mg. The average period of administration in all cases was 161.7 days (1-336 days), and the drug was discontinued in 46 cases (33.6%) on average 62.1 days (1-141 days). The rate of global improvement by this drug estimated at the time of completion was found to be 65.6% with excellent and good and 87.8% with excellent, good and fair. The efficacy of this drug was stable and not decreased during the long-term test period. As to the objective findings studied before, during and after the drug administration, cystometric bladder capacity was significantly increased both first desire to void and the total capacity. Voided volume and residual urine were also increased, but there was no change in the rate of residual urine. Side effects were observed in 37 (26.2%) of 141 cases, and mainly gastrointestinal signs such as dry mouth and constipation. Urological signs such as dysuria and urinary retention were experienced in 8 cases. Regarding the findings of laboratory tests, there were no abnormality except for small changes of some items in normal range. Six children who were younger than 15 years old were subjected to this study. The results of evaluation were similar to those obtained on adults and no side effects were observed. From these findings, oxybutynin hydrochloride is considered an effective and useful drug in patients suffering from neurogenic bladder and unstable bladder with over active bladder condition.

Clinical effects of oxybutynin hydrochloride on lower urinary tract function at a dosage of 2 mg given orally three times daily (6 mg/day), were studied on 10 patients with neurogenic bladder by cystometry and measurement of residual urine. There was a significant increase, of about 34% in FDV, but no significant changes in MBV, or maximum voiding pressure of residual urine after administration. Urinary frequency, incontinence and urgency in subjective symptoms were decreased in patients given this drug. The effective rate (excellent and good) was 50% in global evaluation. Side effects were observed in 4 out of 10 patients; 3 had dry mouth and 1 had diarrhea. There were no serious side effects. These findings suggested that oxybutynin hydrochloride may be a useful drug for neurogenic bladder.

The clinical effect of terodiline hydrochloride (TD-758) was studied in 95 patients with nervous pollakisuria or irritative bladder. TD-758 was given per os randomly at a dose of 24 mg or 12 mg once a day for 4 weeks. The symptoms such as urinary frequency, urinary incontinence and sense of residual urine were improved in 74% of the patients taking 24 mg, and in 51% of the patients taking 12 mg. The difference was statistically significant. Side effects such as dry mouth, constipation and heart burn were observed in 15% of the patients in each group and were not serious. The results of this study indicate that TD-758 is useful for these patients and its optimal dosage is 24 mg once a day.

The clinical effectiveness of KL 007 (oxybutynin hydrochloride) was studied on patients with urinary disturbance, mostly complaints of urinary frequency, who were suffering from nervous pollakisuria, irritable bladder or neurogenic bladder. Fifty two patients were administered KL 007 three times daily at the dose of 6 mg, 9 mg, or 12 mg per day for one or two weeks. An overall clinical effectiveness of KL 007 was seen in the cases of hypertonic bladder. As to the clinical effectiveness of subjective symptoms, KL 007 improved the symptoms of urinary frequency, urinary incontinence, discomfort upon micturition, urinary urgency and sense of residual urine. Transient side effects were observed in 23 cases (41.4%), and dry mouth was most observed. No severe side effects were noticed.

Oxybutynin possesses anticholinergic and spasmolytic properties, which together form the basis for its use as a therapeutic option in patients with overactive detrusor function--either idiopathic detrusor instability (DI) or detrusor hyperreflexia. Of the symptoms of detrusor overactivity, urge incontinence is often the most distressing to the patient. Urge incontinence and other subjective parameters (urinary frequency, urgency) improve in tandem with objective (cystometric) measures (maximum detrusor pressure during filling, volume at first desire to void, maximum bladder capacity) in ambulatory, including elderly, patients treated with oxybutynin. However, on the basis of results of limited investigations, the drug appears ineffective in elderly institutionalised individuals. Relative to other anticholinergic drugs, oxybutynin appears at least as effective as propantheline and similar in efficacy to propiverine in small trials, although these results are not definitive. Further investigation of intravesical oxybutynin may lead to this route becoming an option in patients with pre-existing catheters. Adverse effects--dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision--related to the anticholinergic activity of oxybutynin occur frequently and can be sufficiently troublesome to necessitate treatment discontinuation in up to 25% of patients, depending on the dosage. Increases in residual urine volume suggesting urinary retention (undesirable in patients with idiopathic DI), also can develop in some oxybutynin recipients. In summary, oxybutynin is one of the few drugs proven to be beneficial in some patients with overactive detrusor function. Despite the occurrence of unwanted anticholinergic effects in many patients, and apparent lack of efficacy in the elderly institutionalised population, oxybutynin should be considered for the drug of first choice in patients with detrusor overactivity, including the elderly ambulatory population, when pharmacological therapy is indicated.

Two hundred sixty-five patients with head and neck cancer who had previously participated in either a fixed-dose, dose-titration, or dose-ranging trial of oral pilocarpine hydrochloride tablets were enrolled in a 36-month multicenter maintenance study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of oral pilocarpine for the treatment of radiation-induced xerostomia. In this open-label study, the initial drug dose was 5.0 mg tid, with possible adjustments from 2.5 to 10.0 mg tid or bid. Efficacy was evaluated by subjective measures of oral function. Safety evaluations were based on self-report of symptoms (or of adverse effects), various examinations, and laboratory tests. There was significant improvement in all criteria of oral function. Sweating was the most frequent adverse experience (55%). Less frequent side effects, mild to moderate in nature, included increased urinary frequency, lacrimation, and rhinitis. Side effects usually diminished within hours after the cessation of therapy. We conclude that oral pilocarpine at these doses effectively and safely reduces the symptoms of radiation-induced xerostomia.

The safety and efficacy of one-year administration of propiverine hydrochloride (BUP-4 tablets) were assessed in facilities affiliated with the Department of Urology of Yokohama City University School of Medicine. Changes in subjective symptoms showed significant improvement in mean frequency of urination in the daytime from 10.3 +/- 4.0 times before administration to 7.1 +/- 2.9 times 1 year after the start of administration, in mean frequency of voiding at night from 4.2 +/- 1.7 times to 2.1 +/- 1.1 times and in mean incidence of urinary incontinence from 2.9 +/- 2.1 times to 0.7 +/- 1.0 times. The final degree of overall improvement rate was 82.0% (41/50 cases). Adverse effects were observed 26 times in 22 patients, the incidence being 15.6% (22/141 cases). They consisted of digestive symptoms in 9.9% (6 events of dry mouth, 4 of constipation, 2 of abdominal discomfort, 2 of diarrhea and 1 of gastritis), urinary tract symptoms in 3.5% (4 of dysuria and 1 of residual urine), abnormal laboratory findings in 1.4% (increase in glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase or lactate dehydrogenase levels) and others (1.4%). These results provide further evidence of the safety and efficacy of propiverine hydrochloride (BUP-4 tablets) even when administered for a long-term in the treatment of patients with pollakiuria and urinary incontinence.
