title: An objective comparison of the effects of parenterally administered drugs in patients suffering from detrusor instability.
abstract: Cystometric changes produced by 3 parenterally administered drugs, flavoxate hydrochloride, emepronium bromide and imipramine hydrochloride, have been evaluated in 15 female patients with detrusor instability. Each patient was given 2 of the 3 drugs and cystometric recordings were done 10 and 30 minutes after the administration of each drug. Emepronium bromide was found to be the only drug to cause a significant improvement in bladder capacity and reduction in detrusor pressure.
