Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the investigators study is to evaluate whether alpha-blockers such as terazosin and anti-cholinergics such as tolterodine can be relieve the DJ-stent related symptoms.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Ureteral stent (US) has been as essential tool in the urologist's surgeries and is useful instruments that its indications increase due to new stent technologies and improvement of patient's comfort.

US associated with discomfort complications that include lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) as frequency, urgency, dysuria, incomplete emptying, flanks and suprapubic's pain, incontinence, hematuria, movement of stent, infection and encrustation of stent. US related symptoms are as same as LUTS due to benign prostate hyperplasia and overactive bladder which relieve with alpha-blockers and anticholinergic. The purpose of our study is to investigate the effect of terazosin and tolterodine lonely and together in comparison of placebo on US related symptoms.

The investigators study will be done prospectively. The patients who underwent indwelling Double-j stent distributed into four groups: 1)receive placebo 2)receive terazosin 2mg twice 3)receive tolterodine 2mg daily 4) receive terazosin 2mg twice and tolterodine 2mg daily. All of the patients receive prophylactic antibiotic and on demand analgesic. After entrance to study, they fulfill the International Prostatic Symptoms Score (IPSS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) on the before indwelling US, two weeks after indwelling US and US removal time, then the investigators will evaluate the drug's effect on US related symptoms.
