About Intravesical Botox Injection

Intravesical Botox injection is a minimally invasive urological procedure used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) and neurogenic detrusor overactivity. Performed by a urologist, it involves injecting botulinum toxin (Botox) directly into the bladder muscle wall through a cystoscope. The toxin works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause the bladder muscle to contract involuntarily, thereby reducing urinary urgency, frequency, and incontinence episodes. This outpatient procedure offers a significant therapeutic option for patients who have not responded adequately to first-line oral medications. The effects typically last for 6 to 9 months, after which the procedure can be repeated if necessary. It is a well-tolerated treatment that can dramatically improve quality of life.

How to prepare

Complete a detailed medical history review and urological evaluation with your urologist.
Undergo diagnostic tests such as a urine analysis and urodynamic studies to confirm the diagnosis.
Discontinue blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin, warfarin, clopidogrel) as advised by your doctor, typically 5-7 days prior.
Inform your doctor of all current medications, supplements, and allergies.
You may be prescribed a short course of antibiotics before the procedure to prevent infection.
Arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure, as sedation may be used.
Follow fasting instructions if sedation or general anesthesia is planned.

Temporary urinary retention, potentially requiring short-term self-catheterization.
Blood in the urine (hematuria) for a day or two.
Discomfort or a burning sensation during urination initially.
Generalized muscle weakness (rare, if the toxin spreads beyond the injection site).
