Help is much needed please....I think my mum has been given 250ml of Oxybutynin (by a medic)...instead of 250ml of Oxerutins...she is now in intensive care...very drowsy...with pneumonia on both lungs and on a ventilator. We believe she was given the wrong meds for about 4 days...upon reading the effects of overdose of the Oxybutynins all of these things happened to my Mum...we are very very angry...advice please.

You might be able to help me. I have been taking this medication, prescribed for OAB, for roughly 2 weeks now. I noticed 3 days ago it started burning when I peed, and I had the urge to pee alot! Now it's burning BADLY all the time, and there is blood only when I wipe.
Should I go to the ER, or wait till the morning and call my doctor?

I was prescribed oxybutynin 5mg twice daily, but I haven't taken it since Saturday morning. Just recently I've told my doctor and he's changed it, but I'm still getting side effects.

Bad moods can be from no food no nutrition. I know it all to well unfortanatly. My whole life no appetite after my stroke in my right thalamus. I would eat if I were you. No good comes out of our moods without food to feed the brain.

I have been on oxybutynin for almost six months. My mouth is also dry..as the Mojave Desert!! Like you, my throat is horribly painful and swallowing is an issue too. I started a tic is what I called it that I am constantly cleaning my mouth with my tongue all day long. Horrible..nothing is there but it feels like it. I also have a phlegmy cough. Oxybutynin is the only medicine change I have had in the last six months since this started. My other two meds I have been on for years and no problems. Today I stopped by my local dentist and they said I had no issue going on such as a yeast infection nor anything else. They could see that my tongue is tender from the constant movement all day and my throat looked aggravated. So I went by our local Homeopathic Pharmacist and explained what was going on. He sold me Hydrate II drops to add to my daily water drinking. He prefers the Hydrate Spray but was out of it at the time.He says the oxybutynin is designed to control our urine output..it will also dehydrate our cells. Suggested I stop the oxybutynin and to use these drops to restore my dehydrated cells until I can talk to my Dr. about another alternative. I am so hoping it works as this has been awful to deal with. The over the counter moisture stuff for the mouth does not work but for a few minutes. I chew a pack of gum in two days. So sorry for anyone else going thru this.

I have just been prescribed Oxybutynin for constant hot sweats but can't find any feedback on it being used for this purpose. Do you know if hot sweats are one of its indications?

I have been on oxybutynin for about a week and my mouth is incredibly raw and sore. Swallowing is painful as well. I don't see this side effect listed. Almost anything makes it worse. I am miserable. Has anyone had these issues?

When I start taking Oxybutynin, should I take it in the morning or at night? My doctor prescribed me 5mg once per day. I also take medicine for high blood pressure. Can I take Oxybutynin?

Yes you should be concerned. You need to try to talk to her in a calm manner and confront her calmly. I'm just saying this because im a teen as well and just trying to help. If she does end up being addicted to the drug you need to take her to the doctor.
