Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Subject has signed informed consent.
  • Females at least 21 years of age
  • Five or more urge urinary incontinence episodes on a three-day voiding diary. Urge incontinence episodes will be determined based on voiding diary and subject indication of coincident urge symptoms, allowing self-characterization of incontinence type.
  • Urge predominant (urge \>50% of total incontinent episodes) urinary incontinence based on self-reported characterization of incontinent episodes on diary.
  • Demonstrated ability (or have caregiver demonstrate ability) to perform clean intermittent self-catheterization in the event that this would be required.
  • Request for treatment for urge urinary incontinence. The patient may have tried other non-pharmacologic treatments for urge incontinence, such as supervised behavioral therapy, supervised physical therapy, unsupervised physical therapy, supervised biofeedback, and transvaginal electrical stimulation.
  • Subject has undergone 3-week washout period if subject were on anticholinergic therapy prior to enrollment.
  • Subject is able to complete all study related items and interviews.

Exclusion

  • Any previous therapy with trospium chloride, solifenacin, or darifenacin
  • Failed three or more anticholinergic drugs.
  • Contraindication to anticholinergic therapy, specifically with solifenacin or trospium.
  • Current symptomatic urinary tract infection that has not resolved prior to randomization.
  • Uncontrolled narrow-angle glaucoma
  • Gastric retention
  • Baseline need for intermittent self catheterization
  • PVR \>150ml on 2 occasions with void(s) of greater than 150ml
  • Surgical treatment for stress incontinence (sling, Burch or urethral injection) or pelvic organ prolapse recommended or planned at enrollment by study investigator(s).
  • Any prior intra-detrusor botulinum toxin A injections
  • Previous or currently implanted neuromodulation (sacral or tibial).
  • Surgically altered detrusor muscle, such as augmentation cystoplasty.
  • Known allergy to botulinum toxin A.
  • Women with known neurologic disease believed to potentially affect urinary function (Multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, myasthenia gravis, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease).
  • Known allergy to lidocaine.
  • Currently pregnant or lactating patients or patients planning pregnancy within the next year.
  • Sexually active premenopausal women with a uterus who have either not had a tubal ligation or are not on a medically approved form of contraception for at least 3 months prior to and throughout the duration of the study.
  • Cystoscopic findings that preclude injection, in the opinion of the investigator.
  • Current or prior bladder malignancy.
  • In the opinion of the investigator, inability to understand diary instructions and complete 3-day voiding diary.
  • Subjects who are on anticoagulant therapy,excluding aspirin
  • Subject has been previously diagnosed with interstitial cystitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
  • Subjects with hematuria who have not undergone a clinically appropriate evaluation.
  • Subjects taking aminoglycosides at the time of injection.
  • Serum creatinine level greater than twice the upper limit of normal within the previous year.
  • Two or more hospitalizations for medical conditions in the previous year.
  • Plans to move out of area in the next 6 months.
