Effect of a 5-HT2c receptor agonist on urethral closure mechanism in healthy women.

ASP2205, a serotonin 5-HT2c receptor agonist, does not increase the urethral pressure and it is therefore unlikely that 5-HT 2c receptor agonists can be used as a treatment for stress urinary incontinence. ASP2205 was less well tolerated than the high dose of duloxetine.
