Management of overactive bladder

Article Abstract:

It is observed that symptoms of overactive bladder are common, which can be distressing, and are associated with serious adverse consequences such as injurious falls. The symptoms may be caused by myriad factors, including disorders of the lower urinary tract, neurologic conditions, behavioral factors such as caffeine intake, and a variety of commonly prescribed drugs. Patients with overactive bladder often benefit from supportive measures such as education and changes in fluid intake.
