Treatments: Medications:
Anticholinergics: These drugs (e.g., oxybutynin, tolterodine) block the action of acetylcholine on the bladder, reducing involuntary contractions.
Beta-3 adrenergic agonists: Medications like mirabegron work by relaxing the bladder muscle and increasing its capacity.
Topical estrogen (for postmenopausal women): This can help improve bladder function by strengthening the tissues in the urinary tract.

Invasive Treatments (if medications are ineffective):
Botulinum toxin (Botox) injections: Injecting Botox into the bladder muscle can temporarily paralyze it, reducing involuntary contractions.
