"6 years ago I started to experience frequent urination and was unable to put off going. Was prescribed various medications, all of which failed to offer any respite. All tests came back clear. GP prescribed Trospium, and I took this for two years, and it cut down on visits to the loo, although the feeling never went away. 2 years later, Amitriptyline was added, and the next 2 years passed with a bit of the edge taken off. Then advised to discontinue Amitriptyline and just use Trospium due to difficult and painful urination. Been advised I have hypersensitive neurologic bladder. Try to come off Trospium and prescribed Pregabalin. One week off Trospium, and OAB symptoms, such as burning, frequent urination, all returned. Back on Trospium, start Pregabalin tonight."

"I’m a 60 yr old female, history of kidney stones. After the last one, I ended up with urinary frequency and dribbling. My bladder felt constant pressure and like I was not completely voiding. Doctor diagnosed OAB, never had anything like this before and made my life a living hell very quickly. Urologist put me on Trospium, and I read up on the side effects and was a bit worried. The first week I slept A LOT, it tapered off by the second week, and the full benefits kicked in. I feel like my old self again, not having to plot out bathrooms when leaving the house. I did notice some mild constipation, but I take 2 senna every morning to keep regular and so far works just fine. No other side effects, so I feel lucky compared to other reviewers. Still looking at alternative therapies like acupuncture and biofeedback, doing kegels 3x day as well, I don’t like taking pharmaceuticals, so hoping to get off this med someday by using more naturopathic methods. This is the only medication I take."

"Unstable drug - taken for three nights, which worked well, got some sleep and big improvement in how many times I had to get up to urinate. 4th night, the pill made me hyper, like I was on a strong diet pill. Did not sleep all night. I urinated all night long, too many times - heartbeat was not normal and beating too fast. Today, exhausted from no sleep, no energy, tried to sleep but could not, heartbeat still not normal - does not make sense. Unstable drug, will not take it again, and RX will not return my money for not being able to use it."

Trospium "I had tried other medications for overactive bladder, and nothing worked until Sanctura. It took a little over a month to start working, but now my bladder feels completely normal! So thankful!"

Trospium "It did help a lot. I used it for several months until I just couldn't stand the dry, grainy eyes. I finally stopped it due to the eye problem."

"Worse medication I have ever used. My urgency has increased, and leakage is now a regular occurrence. For almost $100 a month, it isn't worth it for me."

Trospium "Only on medication a few days, so will give it more time. So far, I am constipated and find it difficult to wake up in the morning. Those are the only side effects I am experiencing so far."
