Abstract

A short review is given of current literature on medical alternatives for managing neurogenic bladder (NGB) by treating detrusor overactivity (NDO) and improving bladder compliance and urinary incontinence. The first goal of treatment of NGB is to protect the upper tract from damage, and the second is to maintain urinary continence, but all the while maintaining the patient’s quality of life. The use of antimuscarinics, α-adrenoceptor antagonists, β-adrenoceptor agonists, baclofen, and cannabinoids will be discussed.
