Q: I take sanctura 60 mg daily-I still go frequently-5-6 times before noon - still have accidents

I frequently get bladder infections that last from 2 - 5 weeks.  I have had surgery for bladder suspension.  have had 8 wks of bio feed back, done the kleegel exercises have had bladder biopsy, which did not show any pre-cancer.  If I sit for any length of time, like riding in a car, when I get up I sometimes loose control.  It has been only 2 weeks since I  started on the sanctura.  Detr0l and 15 mg enablex were not much help. 

 

Frequently after I empty my bladder, It feels like something the size of a pea is down there.   It lasts for approximatley 20 min. then disappears.  The doctor did not see anything when he did the biopsy.   I am 76 years old, keep active.  I would appreciate any help you can give me

It sounds like you've stayed on top of your incontinence troubles well by trying many treatment options. I'd say give the Sanctura more time to work and see what happens. Here's some info for you:

 

Sanctura Oral
