The FDA has approved Cobenfy (BMS), an oral fixed-dose combination of the muscarinic agonist xanomeline and the peripheral muscarinic antagonist trospium chloride, for treatment of schizophrenia in adults. It is the first antipsychotic drug to be approved in the US for treatment of schizophrenia that does not block dopamine receptors. This is the first approval for xanomeline; trospium has been available for many years for treatment of overactive bladder.

In overactive bladder, involuntary bladder contractions due to detrusor overactivity result in urinary urgency, frequency, nocturia, and incontinence. The prevalence of the disorder increases with age. Nonpharmacologic treatment, including bladder training, urge suppression, pelvic floor muscle exercises, constipation management, modification of fluid intake, and avoidance of dietary irritants such as alcohol and caffeine, should be tried first.

About 60% of men ≥60 years old have clinically relevant prostatic enlargement due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The goals of treatment are to decrease lower urinary tract symptoms and to prevent disease progression and complications such as acute urinary retention. The American Urologic Association's guidelines for treatment of BPH were recently updated.
