200This study will be conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of Trospium chloride versus Tamsulosin for treatment of ureteral stent related symptoms.
Eligible patients will be randomized to one of the two treatment groups. Group 1 patients will receive 30 mg of Trospium chloride tablet twice daily, while group 2 patients will receive 0.4 mg of Tamsulosin tablet once daily, until the stent is removed. Ureteral Stent Symptoms Questionnaire (USSQ) will be used to evaluate the symptoms of the patients with DJ stent after 2 weeks of inserting the stent.
