Three-Drug showdown aims to end stent pain for kidney stone patients

NCT ID NCT06803030

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study compares three common drugs—tamsulosin, solifenacin, and mirabegron—to see which one works best for reducing symptoms caused by ureteral stents placed after kidney stone surgery. About 189 adults will take one of the three pills daily and report their symptoms using a questionnaire. The goal is to find the most effective option to improve comfort while the stent is in place.
