The effect of the prostaglandin synthetase inhibitor, indomethacin on urodynamic values measured by radionuclide imaging was studied in 17 men in a double-blind placebo controlled randomized trial. Measurements were made of voiding time, time for 50% emptying, average flow rate, ejection fraction, post-void residual urine volume, voided volume, and total bladder volume. Statistical analyses indicated no placebo-indomethacin differences between the two groups. Although prostaglandins are thought to contribute to the act of micturition by maintenance of bladder tone and contractility, our studies indicate that a standard dose of the prostaglandin inhibitor, indomethacin, did not affect the voiding component of bladder function. Patients need not discontinue prostaglandin inhibitors and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs with such effects prior to urodynamic testing.
