Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Botox in the bladder is used to treat urinary incontinence. The results will last 3-4 months. I recommend getting a consultation with a urologist to go over any questions or concerns you have about treatment. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question and Botox has an FDA approval for this – and you need to find a board certified urologist or urogynocologist to learn all the pertinent information and what will be best for you.

Hello red198383,Thank you for your question. Many factors go into the decision to use Botox for bladder control. Best to seek evaluation with Urologist or Urogynecologist to understand what conditions/problems you may have with your bladder that require diaper use. Botox would be used to treat or alleviate incontinence.

Melvin Elson, MD · Answer

Generally this is not an issue because that is why the injections are given--to treat incontinence. See a board certified urologist for consultation
