  Overview

  In a podcast style discussion, Mike Corvino, PharmD and Cole Swanson, PharmD examine the management of overactive bladder (OAB) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). These are common conditions with overlapping symptoms. Pharmacists and nurses regularly encounter patients using medications to treat these conditions. It is important that pharmacists and nurses understand the appropriate use of these medications and know how to identify patients who could benefit from them. This session seeks to explore these topics, focusing on how this information can best be incorporated into daily medical practice.
