  RESULTS
  Genuine stress urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine associated with increasing of intraabdominal pressure (such as running, jumping, coughing, etc.). Although the pelvic floor muscle training, behavioral and surgical therapies are currently the mainstay of treating GSI, we believe that pharmacological treatment can help to increase the cure rate. With the advent of duloxetine, a serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) and norepinephrine (NE) reuptake inhibitor acting within the sacral spinal cord, the role of pharmacological treatment of GSI must be reviewed ev. re-examined.
