Introduction: The analysis of the results of a multicenter, open, randomized comparative phase III clinical trial on the use of imidafenacin for treating patients with OAB was carried out. A clinical study was conducted according to GCP standards in 12 urological centers of the Russian Federation with the support of company AO "R-Pharm"., Materials and Methods: A total of 296 patients (men and women) aged from 18 to 65 years with OAB and urgent urinary incontinence were included in the study. All patients were randomized into two groups. In Group 1 (n=148) patients received -cholinoblocker imidafenacin 1 tablet (0,1 mg) twice a day. Group 2 patients (n=148) were prescribed a comparison drug tolterodine 1 tablet (2 mg) twice a day, as well. The duration of treatment was 12 weeks., Results: The analysis of results showed a significant decrease in the OAB symptoms in both groups. In Group 1 a decrease of episodes of urge urinary incontinence was more pronounce compared to Group 2, as well as amount of day-time and night-time of episodes of urge urinary incontinence by the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th weeks of treatment in comparison with baseline scores. There were no differences between two groups in the severity of reducing average urinary frequency per day. Reducing the severity of urinary disturbances in patients of both groups was accompanied by an improvement in the quality of life. There was a significant and similar decrease in the average total score of both OAB Awareness Tool and EQ-5D questionnaires. Tolerability of treatment was satisfactory in both groups and there were no differences in the adverse events in Group 1 and 2., Conclusion: Imidafenacin showed high clinical efficacy for treating patients with OAB, which is not inferior, and in some values, is superior in comparison to tolterodine. Both drugs had a similar safety and tolerability profile.

The effectiveness of overactive bladder treatment with M-cholinoblocker solifenacin (Vesicare) as monotherapy and in combination with α1-andrenoblocker terazosin (Setegis) or bladdrer training in elderly patients was evaluated. The results of 12 weeks treatment in all treatment modality groups were comparable. Use of solifenacin in combination with α1-andrenoblocker in comparison to solifenacin monotherapy resulted in longer symptoms remission.

The article presents the issues of the characteristics of the course, diagnostics and treatment of hyperactive urinary bubble in older men. Conservative treatment of urinary incontinence includes changes in lifestyle, behavioural and medical therapy with m-anticholinergic drugs. The combination solifenacini in a dose of 5 mg/day and α1-adrenoceptor blocking agent terasolini in a dose of 2 mg/day significantly improves the results of treatment and well tolerated.
