Overactive urinary bladder: Targeting sensory pathways

Drug Discovery Today: Therapeutic Strategies, 2005
Capsaicin and related compounds can exert a therapeutic benefit in patients with neurogenic bladder hyper-reflexia and other micturition disturbances. Modulation can be achieved by drugs acting at several levels of the micturition pathway. At the peripheral level, drugs might modulate sensory inputs arising from the bladder by acting directly not only ...
