Following oral administration of DITROPAN (oxybutynin) is rapidly absorbed achieving Cmax within an hour, following which plasma concentration decreases with an effective half-life of approximately 2 to 3 hours. As far as I know the recommended is 5mg 2 times daily. It this dose 20mg daily prescribed by your doctor?
