Hi. I found a bottle of oxybutynin 5mg tablets in my stepdaughter's bedroom and i just wanted to know what this medication is used for and if i should be worried if it is like a pain pill or if i should be worried about an addiction to it?

Hello I am a licensed pharmacist. If the medication was not prescribed to your daughter for urinary incontinence, there is reason for great concern. Many young people are currently using oxybutynin to achieve a sedated feeling or "high" because of the way that it acts in the body. When taken in excess, it can cause seizures and psychosis. Please talk to her ASAP.

I've found that oxybutynin taken at about 100mg will cause intense hallucinations. Which are probably just caused by the fact this drug just makes you confused as heck. It'll make you lose motor control and vision. Your honestly probably better off slamming your head against a wall until you lose it than trying to abuse oxybutynin.

Hello I've done reflexology for 17 years now. My clients who had this issue of sweating I would recommend they take Zinc supplements. You can go to a health food store or research on line. Best of luck.

You seem to be familiar with oxybutynin abuse, based on your post. I have a family member who is doing the same. Is there a chance you would help me?

The best thing you can do is make the doctor who is prescribing the oxybutynin aware of the situation and ask him to stop prescribing it.

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.
