By using a novel app-controlled automated urine collection device, the department of urology of the Charité Universitätsmedizin and Urologic Practice in Berlin investigated for the first time, the exact onset of the effect of Botox® in real time.
Detrusor injection with Botox® is an established therapy for overactive bladder (#OAB). Little is known about the exact onset and course of the effect in the days after the injection therapy. A trend of reduction can be seen from the 4th day, and a significant and clinically meaningful change and alleviation can be expected from the 5th day after Botox®. This is important information for the expectations of patients who choose this minimally invasive therapy.
