Silodosin for bladder emptying problems in women
Treatments studied
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a medication called silodosin to see if it improves bladder emptying in women who have trouble urinating. The drug may help relax the bladder neck, making it easier to urinate and reducing the feeling of incomplete emptying.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have symptoms like trouble starting to urinate, a slow or stop-and-go stream, or the feeling that your bladder isn't empty.
- You have at least one sign of poor bladder emptying, such as leftover urine (100 mL or more) or a slow urine flow rate (less than 15 mL per second).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have an active urinary tract infection, nerve-related bladder problems, or significant pelvic organ prolapse.
- You have not had bladder outlet or urethral surgery before, and you do not have severe kidney or liver disease.

This study tests whether silodosin, a medication that relaxes bladder muscles, can help women with multiple sclerosis who have bothersome urinary symptoms. The goal is to see if it can reduce urgency, frequency, and other lower urinary tract problems.
This study tests a daily medication called silodosin to see how well it improves urinary symptoms and how it affects sexual function in men with an enlarged prostate.
This study compares two medicines (silodosin and tamsulosin) that help with urine flow in men with an enlarged prostate. You would take one medicine for a period, then the other, to see which works better for you.
This study compares two medications—tadalafil (a daily pill for blood flow) and solifenacin (a pill that relaxes the bladder)—to see which works better for women with overactive bladder (OAB), which causes sudden, strong urges to urinate. It will help doctors find a treatment that may have fewer side effects.
This trial compares a new treatment (low-intensity shockwave therapy) with a standard medication (solifenacin) to see which works better for women with overactive bladder (OAB). Overactive bladder means you feel a sudden, strong need to urinate, often have to go frequently, or may leak urine. The study aims to find a more effective or better-tolerated option.
This trial studies whether tamsulosin can help drain the bladder when urine builds up after pelvic reconstructive surgery. It may help reduce the time and problems caused by “post-operative urinary retention.”
