Bristol Urological Institute, South mead Hospital, UK OPEN ACCESS Abstract Keywords • Mirabegron Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of Mirabegron for the • Beta-3 agonist treatment of overactive bladder symptoms in a real life, long term follow up study • Overactive bladder syndrome conducted in a tertiary referral centre. • Long term Methods: A structured telephone questionnaire of patients was conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of Mirabegron. Patients who were initially prescribed and responded to Mirabegron 50mg once daily between 6/2013 and 9/2013, were interviewed to see if they were compliant with treatment, continue to respond to treatment and if they discontinued treatment. Results: Follow-up was for a mean of 11.7 months. At short-term follow-up, 20/39 patients responded to treatment. In the long term follow-up, 18/20 patients were still using Mirabegron. 2/20 patients discontinued because of lack of efficacy. Overall, the main reasons for discontinuation of Mirabegron after trying it for a mean of 5.3 months, was lack of efficacy and adverse events. The majority of AEs were mild in severity and few were serious. Other reasons include the lack of further prescription from general practitioners.

  • Betmiga, INN-Mirabegron
    EMA/591015/2015 EMEA/H/C/002388 EPAR summary for the public Betmiga mirabegron This is a summary of the European public assessment report (EPAR) for Betmiga. It explains how the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) assessed the medicine to reach its opinion in favour of granting a marketing authorisation and its recommendations on the conditions of use for Betmiga. What is Betmiga? Betmiga is a medicine containing the active substance mirabegron. It is available as prolonged-release tablets (25 mg, 50 mg). ‘Prolonged-release’ means that mirabegron is released slowly from the tablet over a few hours. What is Betmiga used for? Betmiga is used in adults with overactive bladder syndrome. It is used to treat certain symptoms of the condition: urgency (sudden urge to urinate), increased urinary frequency (the need to urinate frequently) and urge incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine from the bladder when a sudden strong need to urinate is felt). The medicine can only be obtained with a prescription. How is Betmiga used? The recommended dose of Betmiga is 50 mg once a day. In patients who have reduced kidney or liver function the doctor may need to prescribe a lower dose or avoid the use of Betmiga, especially in patients taking certain other medicines. For full details, see the package leaflet (also part of the EPAR). 30 Churchill Place ● Canary Wharf ● London E14 5EU ● United Kingdom Telephone +44 (0)20 3660 6000 Facsimile +44 (0)20 3660 5555 Send a question via our website www.ema.europa.eu/contact An agency of the European Union © European Medicines Agency, 2015.

  • Mechanism of Action of Nicotine in Isolated Urinary Bladder of Guinea-Pig
    Br. J. Pharmacol. (1988), 95, 465-472 Mechanism of action of nicotine in isolated urinary bladder of guinea-pig Tetsuhiro Hisayama, Michiko Shinkai, lIssei Takayanagi & Toshie Toyoda Department of Chemical Pharmacology, Toho University School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2-2-1, Miyama, Funabashi, Chiba 274, Japan 1 Nicotine produced a transient contraction of isolated strips of guinea-pig urinary bladder. The response to nicotine was antagonized by the nicotinic receptor antagonist, hexamethonium but was insensitive to tetrodotoxin. 2 The nicotine-induced contraction was potentiated by the cholinesterase inhibitor, physostig- mine, and was reduced to 50% and 70% by the muscarinic cholinoceptor antagonist, atropine and the sympathetic neurone blocking drug, guanethidine, respectively. Chemical denervation with 6- hydroxydopamine abolished the inhibitory effect of guanethidine. Simultaneous treatment with atropine and guanethidine did not abolish the response to nicotine, but the degree of inhibition was comparable to that obtained with atropine alone. 3 The nicotine-induced contraction was insensitive to bunazosin and yohimbine (al- and Cc2-adrenoceptor antagonists, respectively), and exogenously applied noradrenaline did not cause a contraction even in the presence of blockade of noradrenaline uptake mechanisms with desipramine and normetanephrine and of fi-adrenoceptors with propranolol, suggesting a non-adrenergic nature of the sympathomimetic effect of nicotine in this tissue. 4 The nicotine-induced contraction in the presence of atropine was abolished after desensitization of P2-purinoceptors with a, ,B-methylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a slowly degradable ATP ana- logue selective for P2-purinoceptors. By this desensitization, the response to ATP, but not to hista- mine, was also abolished. 5 A cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor flurbiprofen partially inhibited the nicotine-induced contraction.
