  • Sublingual pills?

    Grinding the medication will help absorption, but will not change the overall outcome from the medication. Bethancol causes smooth muscle contraction, but in the bladder, it is often in a uncoordinated way. I don’t typically use this medication. READ MORE

  • Is there a remedy to control urinating in the night?

    Urinating at night (nocturia) can be caused by many factors. Some people just drink up until bedtime and therefore off load fluid at night. Some people have lower extremity swelling and when you lay down at night fluid circulates more efficiently and the lower extremity fluid recirculates and is off loaded as urine. Some people (older men) have an enlarged and obstructing prostate, and this leads to voiding issues. Treating the prostate often fixes the problem. Point is, there are many causes of nocturia. Speaking to your urologist can help identify your cause of nocturia. READ MORE
