Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) is common and has a negative
impact on a patient’s quality of life. It is important
for physicians to know how to identify and manage
patients with this condition. Usually only basic clinical
evaluations and a good patient history are necessary to
diagnose OAB. Effective and safe oral therapy is available
and can be initiated by primary care physicians.
