Oxybutynin functions by inhibiting the action of acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors found in the bladder. This inhibition leads to the relaxation of the detrusor muscle, which is responsible for the involuntary contractions that cause the urgency and frequency of urination associated with overactive bladder syndrome. The versatility in its formulations allows for flexibility in administration, catering to different patient needs and preferences.

Description

Oxybutynin is a medication extensively used in the management of overactive bladder and related conditions that exhibit symptoms such as frequent or urgent urination, incontinence, and nocturia. It belongs to the class of drugs known as antimuscarinics or anticholinergics, which work by relaxing the bladder muscles. Oxybutynin effectively reduces bladder muscle spasms, thereby decreasing urination’s urgency and frequency. It is available in various forms, including oral tablets, transdermal patches, and topical gels.
