Ditropan (oxybutynin): I have Parkinson's and a prostatectomy. This medicine didn't relieve the frequent nighttime urination and caused negative mood changes (upset, anger) with swollen ankles and esophageal blockage.

oxybutynin: This has been a life saver. No longer do I have to worry about visiting friends overnight or going on trips and have to stop numerous times to go to the bathroom. I can finally get a good nights sleep. I have not had any side effects.

oxybutynin: This has worked wonders! I can go places without worrying if I will make it to the next rest stop of store bathroom. I can do things with my daughter without having to go to the bathroom every few minutes. Still have to wear a pad for drips but I don't have to wear those pull-up like diapers anymore. HURRAY!

oxybutynin: I feel as if I am retaining fluids while using this medication. I do have extreme thirst also.

oxybutynin: I have been taking Oxybutynin for approximately two months now due to urinary incontinence and bladder pain. It does help somewhat for the bladder spasms, but not all of the time. I have also noticed that the skin on my face and mouth is extremely dry. The last and worst side effect that I just noticed a couple of days ago is dry eyes and blurred vision.

Ditropan (oxybutynin): It didn't work for my incontinence problem (which occurred after laser TURP), and I think it made it worse. It caused me to have a dry mouth, which caused me to drink more, which caused more incontinence. I told the doctor that I wasn't having bladder spasms, but he ignored what I said and said to give it a try and come back in 30 days.

oxybutynin: I have been taking this for 3 months and still have leaking. I feel like I have to really go then only dribble.

Oxytrol (oxybutynin): It didn't work for me. I was disappointed since I like the idea of a patch.

oxybutynin: This did not work for me. I still have the problem of having to go right away or leaking.

oxybutynin: My adult daughter, who has autism, became incontinent and so far this medication has helped. She still wears a pad but has less wetting.
