OnabotulinumtoxinA and anticholinergic therapy produced equivalent reductions in daily urgency urinary incontinence episodes over 6 months (3.3 vs 3.4 episodes/day reduction from a baseline of 5.0/day, P=0.81), with no significant difference between the two treatments.

Follow-up6 months
ComparatorAnticholinergic therapy (solifenacin 5-10 mg daily, with option to switch to trospium XR 60 mg)
Effect summarynull; 3.3 vs 3.4 episodes per day reduction
