β3‐Adrenoceptor Agonist Effects on the Urinary Bladder Beyond Detrusor Relaxation

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims β3‐Adrenoceptor agonists such as mirabegron or vibegron reach pharmacokinetic steady‐state within a few days. However, maximum improvements in symptoms of the overactive bladder syndrome are reached at time points later than 4 weeks, that is, detrusor smooth muscle relaxation cannot fully explain clinical effects.
