Abstract
Objective: Urinary incontinence is defined as urinary incontinence that is a social or hygienic problem and can be objectively demonstrated. It is aimed to compare tolterodine, trospium chloride and solifenacin treatments, and its side effects on patients who have complaints of pure urinary and mixed incontinence.
Material and Method: Totally 98 patients, who applied to Ankara Etlik Zubeyde Hanım Gynecology Training and Research Hospital, Urogynecology Outpatient Clinic between November 2009 and October 2010 with compliants of urinary incontinence and met the criteria to participate in the research, have been included in this study.
Results: A significant improvement in each three of the drug group at third and six months was determined. Solifenacin is generally more effective than the other two treatments. When total values of UDI-6 (Urinary Distress Inventory) survey is analysed, it is seen that each of three antimuscarinic drug group ensured improvement on symptoms at the end of the third month as not to be different from the improvement at the six month. Each three antimuscarinic drug group has a significant therapeutic effect on the IIQ-7 (Incontinence Impact Questionnaire) survey which questions the life quality. Whereas complaints of constipation was seen more at patients that use tolterodine and trospium chloride, there was not a significant difference despite a slight increase in the solifenacin group (p>0.05). It is determined that solifenacin caused desert mouth less than the other two drug groups
Conclusion: Tolterodine, trospium chloride and solifenacin as anticholinergic drugs meaningfully reduced the activity of bladder and increased the quality of life. Drug therapy provided an effective and efficient improvement on incontinence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication-induced salivary gland dysfunction (MISGD), xerostomia (sensation of oral dryness), and subjective sialorrhea cause significant morbidity and impair quality of life. However, no evidence-based lists of the medications that cause these disorders exist. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to compile a list of medications affecting salivary gland function and inducing xerostomia or subjective sialorrhea. DATA SOURCES Electronic databases were searched for relevant articles published until June 2013. Of 3867 screened records, 269 had an acceptable degree of relevance, quality of methodology, and strength of evidence. We found 56 chemical substances with a higher level of evidence and 50 with a moderate level of evidence of causing the above-mentioned disorders. At the first level of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system, 9 of 14 anatomical groups were represented, mainly the alimentary, cardiovascular, genitourinary, nervous, and respiratory systems. Management strategies include substitution or discontinuation of medications whenever possible, oral or systemic therapy with sialogogues, administration of saliva substitutes, and use of electro-stimulating devices. LIMITATIONS While xerostomia was a commonly reported outcome, objectively measured salivary flow rate was rarely reported. Moreover, xerostomia was mostly assessed as an adverse effect rather than the primary outcome of medication use. This study may not include some medications that could cause xerostomia when administered in conjunction with others or for which xerostomia as an adverse reaction has not been reported in the literature or was not detected in our search. CONCLUSIONS We compiled a comprehensive list of medications with documented effects on salivary gland function or symptoms that may assist practitioners in assessing patients who complain of dry mouth while taking medications. The list may also prove useful in helping practitioners anticipate adverse effects and consider alternative medications.

Abstract
Overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) is a chronic condition that has an impact on patients' daily activities and health-related quality of life (HRQL). Anticholinergic therapy is often prescribed following insufficient results with behaviour modification alone; however, rates of treatment discontinuation are consistently high. This study systematically reviewed persistence and adherence data in patients with OAB treated with anticholinergic therapy. A search focused on the intersection of OAB, persistence/adherence, and anticholinergic therapy was conducted in MEDLINE and EMBASE. Articles published after 1998 were reviewed and selected for inclusion based on prespecified criteria. A total of 147 articles and two abstracts were included in the review. Results from 12-week clinical trials showed high rates of discontinuation, ranging from 4% to 31% and 5% to 20% in treatment and placebo groups, respectively. Unsurprisingly, rates of discontinuation found in medical claims studies were substantially higher, with 43% to 83% of patients discontinuing medication within the first 30 days and rates continuing to rise over time. Findings from medical claims studies also suggest that over half of patients never refill their initial prescription and that adherence levels tend to be low, with mean/median medication possession ratio (MPR) values ranging from 0.30 to 0.83. The low levels of persistence and adherence documented in this review reveal cause for concern about the balance between the efficacy and tolerability of anticholinergic agents. Strategies should be identified to increase persistence and adherence. New agents and non-pharmacologic alternatives with good efficacy and minimal side effects should be explored.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, safety, and clinical application of trospium chloride for the management of overactive bladder (OAB). DATA SOURCES Clinical literature including both primary sources and review articles was accessed through MEDLINE, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, and Cochrane databases from 1980 through January 8, 2009. Search terms included overactive bladder, urge urinary incontinence, muscarinic receptor antagonists, and urinary frequency. Further data sources were identified from bibliographies of selected articles. STUDY SELECTION AND DATA EXTRACTION Basic pharmacology data were extracted from animal studies and pharmacokinetic data were gathered from human studies. Multicenter, parallel, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies were included to describe the efficacy and adverse effects of trospium. DATA SYNTHESIS Trospium chloride is an antimuscarinic agent indicated for the treatment of OAB with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and urinary frequency. Trospium has 3 chemical and pharmacokinetic properties unique among antimuscarinic agents: it is a positively charged quaternary ammonium compound with minimal central nervous system penetration; it is not metabolized by the cytochrome P450 system, resulting in a lower tendency for drug interactions; and it is excreted mainly unchanged in the urine as the active parent compound, providing local activity to achieve early onset of clinical effect and prolonged efficacy. In two 12-week, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical studies in adults with OAB, trospium 20 mg twice daily was more effective than placebo in reducing the number of micturitions per 24 hours, reducing the number of urge incontinence episodes per week, and increasing the volume of urine voided per micturition. Placebo-controlled trials report efficacy with trospium in treatment of OAB; comparative trials with other anticholinergic agents are limited. Current therapy of OAB consists primarily of anticholinergic drugs such as oxybutynin, which are associated with therapy-limiting adverse effects. Because the prevalence of OAB is greatest among the elderly, safety considerations regarding renal function must be noted, with dosage adjustment required in patients with severe renal impairment. CONCLUSIONS Whether the pharmacodynamic properties of trospium make it superior to other therapies will require considerable additional experience with the drug. For now, it appears to be a feasible alternative for patients who cannot tolerate oxybutynin.
