Oxybutinin

What is Ditropan? 

 

Ditropan is the brand name of a drug called oxybutynin. This drug is part of a group of medications called antispasmodics, which are designed to relax the smooth muscles in the bladder and relieve pain and discomfort associated with spasms. Usually, Ditropan is used to relieve bladder spasms in circumstances where other more conservative medications may not have been effective.  

Ditropan is available to treat a range of disorders associated with bladder instability. Usually, the purpose for the drug is to address abnormal nerve impulses in the bladder. In these situations, Ditropan reduces the activity in the bladder muscles to address symptoms like dysuria, frequency, urinary incontinence and more. Ditropan can only be used to treat incontinence in children older than five years, and adults. Crucially, while the substance is capable of controlling symptoms, it does not cure the underlying condition. Most people will be required to take Ditropan at the same day, every day for a specified length of time. Not all patients with incontinence issues will be able to receive Ditropan treatment.  

 

When is Ditropan used? 

 

Ditropan is used in circumstances where other methods of treating incontinence have not been successful. The active component in this substance is oxybutynin chloride, which relaxes smooth muscles in the body. The medication works by inhibiting the effects of the acetylcholine compound, reducing the risk of involuntary contractions in people with bladder issues.  

Commonly, Ditropan is used to treat adults and children over the age of 5 with: 

• Urinary incontinence, or the loss of control in passing water 
• Night-time bedwetting, when other treatments are not successful 
• Increased urgency or need to pass urine 

 

How do you use Ditropan? 

 

Ditropan is currently available in a range of different forms, including patches, syrups, and tablets or pills. The option that your doctor offers will depend on your dosage, how comfortable you feel taking pills, and your age. Usually, the syrup is better suited to younger people taking Ditropan. When taken by mouth, Ditropan should only be consumed in the dosage prescribed by your doctor. The amount you take will depend on your condition and response to various forms of therapy.  Ditropan tablets are intended to be taken whole with a glass of water. For adults, the usual dosage is a single tablet between two and three times per day - up to a maximum of four times per day. Older patients may need to take a lower dose to reduce their risk of side effects. 

Children over the age of five years may need to take one tablet twice a day, or they may use the syrup version of Ditropan instead. When taking Ditropan, it is important to be careful when driving and operating heavy machinery, as the medication may cause vision problems, dizziness and drowsiness. Ditropan should also be taken with caution in hot environments, as it sometimes impairs the body's ability to sweat and can lead to overheating. Your doctor may perform regular cystometry tests to determine your bladder function while you're taking Ditropan.
