Lower urinary tract symptoms: what the trials found

New evidence indicates that self-administered nitrous oxide is an available intervention for lower urinary tract symptoms 1. Tamsulosin has been shown to reduce the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) by values ranging from 9.2 to 18.7 3 and significantly decrease the Urinary Growth Factor to Creatinine Ratio (GF/Cr) by -19.61 2. Additionally, tamsulosin was associated with a reduction in the mean number of micturitions per 24 hours (-1.1 to -2.3) and a significant reduction in the Total Urgency Frequency Score (TUFS) (-4.4 to -8.1) 8.

A fixed-dose combination of tamsulosin hydrochloride and solifenacin succinate resulted in a reduction of 9.0 in total IPSS, a reduction of 10.1 in TUFS, and a decrease of 2.5 in the mean number of micturitions per 24 hours 7. In contrast, placebo groups showed no significant improvement or were associated with minor changes in IPSS (6 to 7) 5 or erectile function scores 6. Furthermore, tamsulosin demonstrated high adherence rates, with over 85% of patients following label instructions and over 93% taking no more than one capsule per day 12.

A combination of tolterodine and tamsulosin showed a statistically significant reduction in the frequency of urination at 6 weeks (p=<.0001) and between 6 to 12 weeks (p=.0013), though the change from baseline to 12 weeks did not reach statistical significance (p=0.2933) 4.

Recent results — preliminary, needs further review

  • [ * Intra-detrusor injection of Onabotulinumtoxin-A was associated with a significant increase in Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) signals in the brain (p=0.0012) 15.

For the clinician treating this condition

  • Tamsulosin and its combination with solifenacin are established to reduce IPSS, TUFS, and daily micturition frequency [7, 8].
  • Combination therapy of tolterodine and tamsulosin significantly reduces urination frequency at the 6-week mark 4.
  • Tamsulosin demonstrates high patient compliance and adherence rates in clinical practice 12.
