Phase 3
Terminated
Conditions
Overactive Bladder
Interventions
Behavioral: Vesicare (solifenacin) plus behavioral modification
Registration Number
NCT00821184
Lead Sponsor
Lahey Clinic
Brief Summary

This study will help determine if behavior modification performed in conjunction with oral Vesicare anticholinergic therapy is more effective for treating overactive bladder symptoms than oral Vesicare anticholinergic therapy alone.

Detailed Description

Overactive bladder symptoms are commonly treated with oral anticholinergic medications that work by stopping muscles from tightening or behavioral modification. This study will help determine if behavior modification (fluid regulation, pelvic exercises, timed voiding) performed in conjunction wth oral Vesicare anticholinergic therapy, is more effective for treating overactive bladder symptoms than oral Vesicare anticholinergic therapy alone.
