Urinary Antispasmodics TCO 02.2018
Therapeutic Class Overview Urinary antispasmodics INTRODUCTION • Overactive bladder (OAB) is defined as urinary urgency, with or without urge incontinence, usually with frequency and nocturia, in the absence of a causative infection or pathological conditions. Urinary incontinence has been shown to greatly reduce quality of life in areas such as mental and general health in addition to physical and social functioning (American Urological Association 2019, Coyne et al 2008, Haab 2014, International Continence Society 2015). Children with OAB usually have detrusor overactivity as diagnosed through cystometric evaluation. Neurogenic detrusor overactivity is predominantly caused by a congenital neural tube defect in children (Austin et al 2016, Franco ○ et al 2020). • Behavioral therapies (eg, bladder training, bladder control strategies, pelvic floor muscle training and fluid management) are considered first-line treatment in all patients with OAB (American Urological Association 2019). • Urinary antispasmodics are used as first-line pharmacological therapy in OAB (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists 2015, American Urological Association 2019, Blok et al 2020, Burkhard et al 2018). Anticholinergic therapy has been frequently used in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity, but there are limited data in this specific population (Haab 2014). • The○ urinary antispasmodics used for the treatment of OAB belong to 2 classes of drugs, which include anticholinergic compounds known as muscarinic receptor antagonists, and the beta-3 adrenergic agonist (AR), mirabegron. The anticholinergic agents act as antagonists of acetylcholine at muscarinic cholinergic receptors, thereby relaxing smooth muscle in the bladder and decreasing bladder contractions. ○ . Oral immediate-release (IR) and extended-release (ER) formulations (LA, XL, and XR) are available for oxybutynin (Ditropan), tolterodine (Detrol), and trospium. -

Anticholinergic Drugs and Dementia
DEMENTIA Q&A 24 Anticholinergic drugs and dementia Anticholinergics are a class of drug used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions. As with any medication, anticholinergics can have many beneficial effects, but these need to be balanced against a number of potential risks. This sheet provides information about how these drugs work as well as the impact that they may have in respect to dementia risk and cognitive functioning.

Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management
Guideline: Preoperative Medication Management Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management Purpose of Guideline: To provide guidance to physicians, advanced practice providers (APPs), pharmacists, and nurses regarding medication management in the preoperative setting. Background: Appropriate perioperative medication management is essential to ensure positive surgical outcomes and prevent medication misadventures.1 Results from a prospective analysis of 1,025 patients admitted to a general surgical unit concluded that patients on at least one medication for a chronic disease are 2.7 times more likely to experience surgical complications compared with those not taking any medications. As the aging population requires more medication use and the availability of various nonprescription medications continues to increase, so does the risk of polypharmacy and the need for perioperative medication guidance.2 There are no well-designed trials to support evidence-based recommendations for perioperative medication management; however, general principles and best practice approaches are available. General considerations for perioperative medication management include a thorough medication history, understanding of the medication pharmacokinetics and potential for withdrawal symptoms, understanding the risks associated with the surgical procedure and the risks of medication discontinuation based on the intended indication. Clinical judgement must be exercised, especially if medication pharmacokinetics are not predictable or there are significant risks associated with inappropriate medication withdrawal (eg, tolerance) or continuation (eg, postsurgical infection).2 Clinical Assessment: Prior to instructing the patient on preoperative medication management, completion of a thorough medication history is recommended – including all information on prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, “as needed” medications, vitamins, supplements, and herbal medications. Allergies should also be verified and documented. -

Vesicare (Solifenacin Succinate)
VESIcare® (solifenacin succinate) Tablets Description VESIcare® (solifenacin succinate) is a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Chemically, solifenacin succinate is butanedioic acid, compounded with (1S)-(3R)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl 3,4 dihydro-1-phenyl-2(1H)-iso-quinolinecarboxylate (1:1) having an empirical formula of C23H26N2O2•C4H6O4, and a molecular weight of 480.55. The structural formula of solifenacin succinate is: Solifenacin succinate is a white to pale-yellowish-white crystal or crystalline powder. It is freely soluble at room temperature in water, glacial acetic acid, dimethyl sulfoxide, and methanol. Each VESIcare tablet contains 5 or 10 mg of solifenacin succinate and is formulated for oral administration. In addition to the active ingredient solifenacin succinate, each VESIcare tablet also contains the following inert ingredients: lactose monohydrate, corn starch, hypromellose 2910, magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol 8000 and titanium dioxide with yellow ferric oxide (5 mg VESIcare tablet) or red ferric oxide (10 mg VESIcare tablet). Clinical Pharmacology Solifenacin is a competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist. Muscarinic receptors play an important role in several major cholinergically mediated functions, including contractions of urinary bladder smooth muscle and stimulation of salivary secretion. Pharmacokinetics Absorption After oral administration of VESIcare to healthy volunteers, peak plasma levels (Cmax) of solifenacin are reached within 3 to 8 hours after administration, and at steady state ranged from 32.3 to 62.9 ng/mL for the 5 and 10 mg VESIcare tablets, respectively. The absolute bioavailability of solifenacin is approximately 90%, and plasma concentrations of solifenacin are proportional to the dose administered. Effect of food There is no significant effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of solifenacin. -
