Overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence (UI) have high prevalence in both genders after the age of 40 years. Urgency is the leading OAB symptom negatively impacted on patient quality of life. Antimuscarinic therapy is the primary of OAB and UI treatment. Solifenacin due to high-selectivity relieves OAB symptoms while good tolerability including patients with cardio-vascular comorbidity and seniors and improves quality of life. Management of women in postmenopause and men with benign prostatic hyperplasia needs complex treatment approach. Generics improves therapy affordable and treatment adherence.
