Participant Flow

Consecutive women were prescreened for eligibility and introduced to the study prior to surgery. Women with postoperative urinary retention following pelvic organ prolapse and/or incontinence surgery were approached for study inclusion at the time of their postoperative in-office voiding trial between September 2017 and April 2019.

Women were deemed as "enrolled" once they consented and randomized. No enrolled participants were excluded with this definition.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: within 30 days of surgery

Population: Compliance was defined as the number pills taken divided by total number of pills dispensed (10). The closer this ratio is to "1" the better the compliance. The closer the ratio is to "0" the worse the compliance

Compliance assessed by use of a medication diary during treatment period
