Of late, we observe a trend to a progressive rise of overactive bladder (OB) morbidity with age. M-cholinolytic drugs are most effective in management of OB but old patients with prostatic adenoma (PA) and comorbid pathology have a risk of acute urinary retention and serious side effects. We have the experience in combined treatment of 30 old patients with PA and OB with M-cholinolytic and alpha-adrenoblocker. The results of the treatment show its efficacy and absence of complications in the control of residual urine for 3 months. Combination of M-cholinolytic with alpha-adreboblocker significantly reduced daily diuresis, improved an accumulation function of the bladder and life quality.
