Urinary incontinence (UI) in older adults responds to a wide array of management strategies. Best practice involves a stepped strategy moving from least invasive to more invasive therapies, starting with correction of the contributing comorbidity. Methods of behavioral alteration are effective, yet many older persons with urge UI often require medication as well. This article provides an overview of pharmacological treatment of UI in older persons, with an orientation toward future therapeutic approaches.
