OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of tolterodine on bladder spasm caused by the indwelling catheter after prostate operation.
METHODS
Eighty-two patients with bladder spasm caused by the indwelling catheter after prostate operation received tolterodine (2 mg twice daily), until 24 hours before the removal of the catheter.
RESULTS
After 24 hours of treatment, bladder spasm was alleviated totally in 21 patients (25.6%), partially in 45 (54.9%), and unrelieved in 16 (19.5%). After 72 hours of treatment, bladder spasm was alleviated totally in 45 patients (54.9%), partially in 30 (36.6%), and unrelieved in 7 (8.5%). No severe adverse events occurred during the treatment.
CONCLUSION
The tolterodine therapy for patients with bladder spasm caused by the indwelling catheter after prostate operations is rapid, effective, persistent and safe.
