Overactive bladder (OAB) affects over 17% of the population and significantly effect the health‐related quality of life. The treatments for OAB include first line (lifestyle modification, pelvic floor muscle training), second line (anticholinergic or beta‐3 agonist medications), and third line therapies (intradetrusor botulinum toxin injection, sacral neurostimulation [SNM], or percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation [PTNS]). For those with urinary incontinence secondary to OAB, complete continence is the goal of therapy, though cure rates are only 5% to 40%. The use of combination therapies can be employed in refractory OAB, however, the efficacy of pooled modalities is relatively unknown. Our objective was to determine the volume of data supporting combination therapy in treating OAB.
