Studies on the effect and mode of action of flavoxate in human urinary bladder and sphincter.
Flavoxate, a smooth muscle relaxant, compared with propantheline showed no significant difference in clinical effect on voiding disturbances in hyperactive neurogenic bladders, but fewer side effects. Both drugs increased bladder capacity significantly, but flavoxate did not increase residual urine in contrast to propantheline.
