We are focused on making a meaningful difference in the lives of patients with overactive bladder.
Overactive Bladder (OAB)
For people with OAB, the symptoms of urgency, increased frequency (specifically the need to urinate eight or more times a day), and accidental leakage episodes can be disruptive and disturbing.
While OAB is not a life-threatening condition, coping with its daily symptoms is limiting. People living with symptoms of OAB may not realize that it is more common than they might think.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition in men in which the prostate gland is enlarged. About 60% of men with BPH are treated for lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), such as OAB. LUTS can be divided into storage, voiding, and postmicturition symptoms. Over half of men with BPH report storage symptoms and about a quarter report voiding symptoms. This suggests that many men with a diagnosis of BPH may have overactive bladder. About half of all men between ages 51 and 60 have BPH and up to 90% of men over age 80 are living with the condition.
