Oxybutynin reduces muscle spasms of the bladder and urinary tract.
Oxybutynin is used to treat symptoms of overactive bladder, such as frequent or urgent urination, incontinence (urine leakage), and increased night-time urination.

Detrol reduces spasms of the bladder muscles.
Detrol is used to treat overactive bladder with symptoms of urinary frequency, urgency, and incontinence.

They basically work the same.
