title: The action of bromocriptine on human detrusor muscle.
abstract: The pharmacological effects of bromocriptine on human detrusor muscle were investigated by an in vitro isometric method. Both a direct stimulating effect and an anticholinergic effect were demonstrated. These effects, together with an alpha-adrenergic blocking effect reported in a previous paper, are correlated with the published clinical effects of bromocriptine in patients with primary and secondary unstable detrusors.
