Oxybutynin in bladder spasm, neurogenic bladder, and enuresis

Area of Science:

• Pharmacology
• Urology

Background:

• Oxybutynin chloride, a tertiary amine, exhibits anticholinergic and direct muscular antispasmodic effects.
• The drug has been utilized in clinical settings for various bladder-related conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

• To evaluate the efficacy of oxybutynin chloride in managing neurovesical dysfunction, enuresis, and bladder spasms.
• To document the drug's pharmacological activity through cystometric studies.

Main Methods:

• Controlled clinical studies were conducted.
• Cystometric documentation was employed to assess drug activity.

Main Results:

• Oxybutynin chloride demonstrated synergistic anticholinergic and muscle relaxant activity.
• The drug's effects were documented via cystometry.

Conclusions:

• Oxybutynin chloride is highly effective in managing reflex neurovesical dysfunction.
• The drug is beneficial for treating enuresis and bladder spasms.
