The Forefront for Novel Therapeutic Agents Based on the Pathophysiology of Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction: Bladder Selectivity Based on In Vivo Drug–Receptor Binding Characteristics of Antimuscarinic Agents for Treatment of Overactive Bladder

We have reviewed the binding of antimuscarinic agents, used to treat urinary dysfunction in patients with overactive bladder, to muscarinic receptors in target and non-target tissues in vivo. Transdermal administration of oxybutynin in rats led to significant binding in the bladder without long-term...
