What it is for

This information is not included in the verified source. Open the official leaflet

How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (oxybutynin). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

Oxybutynin relaxes bladder smooth muscle.

Oxybutynin chloride exerts a direct antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle and inhibits the muscarinic action of acetylcholine on smooth muscle.

How the body breaks it down

Oxybutynin is metabolized primarily by the cytochrome P450 enzyme systems, particularly CYP3A4 found mostly in the liver and gut wall.

How it leaves the body

Oxybutynin is extensively metabolized by the liver, with less than 0.1% of the administered dose excreted unchanged in the urine.

With food

Food Effects The rate and extent of absorption and metabolism of oxybutynin are similar under fed and fasted conditions.
