Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to an extract from the plant Piper Longum L. that is safe and has various beneficial effects on voiding dysfunction. It can increase the time between urges, reduce the pressure of urination, increase the bladder capacity, prevent the detrusor from contracting, and relax the detrusor.

Problems solved by technology

Various voiding dysfunction symptoms such as overactive bladder negatively affect health-related quality of individual life in various aspects, since the quality of individual life cannot help being lowered due to restricted intake of beverages, experience of inconvenience to frequently go to toilet, impact on personal relationship and social life, occurrence of health problems or insufficient sleep at night, and the like (Jeung Im KIM, Young Ho KIM, & Hyun Chul AHN, 2002; Yoo Sik LEE, 2001a).
Conditions of overactive bladder are related to involuntary contraction to result in state of bladder hyperactivity.
Although antimuscarinic drugs are now widely used as an initial standard treatment of the overactive bladder, there is still no report for internationally practiced and controlled clinical trials to certainly demonstrate effectiveness, and it is reported that since these drugs have anticholinergic property affected across nervous system, adverse effects such as thirst, constipation, blurred vision and acute urinary retention are occurred at the rate of 1-2 in 10 people.
In this case, it is known that if one does not immediately urinate, pain may be induced, and severely, the bladder may arbitrarily contact to proceed into urgency incontinence leaking urine.
To be defined as nocturnal urine, it should be necessary accompanied by sleep before and after voiding, and the patient with nocturia frequently wakes up and does not fall asleep easily, so that he is sleepy and tired in the daytime due to disturbed sleep to result in inconvenience in his daily life.
Furthermore, an elderly person has a problem to increase risk of fall or fracture.
However, it is not still known about an effect of improving voiding dysfunction with Piper Longum L.
