Abstract
Spasticity represents an important cause of disability for patients with multiple sclerosis. Even more, dysfunction of the bladder greatly aggravates the patient’s burden and is responsible for their poor quality of life. Here, the case of a 35-year-old woman suffering from relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, with a slight spastic paraparesis associated with significant urinary urge incontinence, is reported. First-line antispastic treatments, physiotherapy and symptomatic drugs for urinary disorders did not bring any benefit, for ineffectiveness or side effects. However, nabiximols relieved the urinary symptoms, improving the patient’s sleep and quality of life without side effects
