NCT ID NCT07405554
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether taking zinc supplements before a Botox injection can improve results for women with overactive bladder. 72 women will receive either zinc or a placebo pill for five days before their Botox treatment. Researchers will track how many need another injection within six months and whether their bladder symptoms improve.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Zinc citrate oral capsule
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple way to make Botox injections last longer for overactive bladder, reducing how often women need repeat procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (72 people). The benefit of zinc is unproven, and it may not change outcomes at all. Zinc supplements can cause nausea or stomach upset.
