Generics

Oxybutynin Hydrochloride

Used For

Frequent Urination

How it works

Oxybutynin has both direct antispasmodic action on the smooth muscle of the bladder detrusor muscle as well as anticholinergic action in blocking the muscarinic effects of acetylcholine on smooth muscle. These properties cause relaxation of the detrusor muscle of the bladder in patients with an unstable bladder. Oxybutynin increases bladder capacity and reduces the incidence of spontaneous contractions of the detrusor muscle.
