For Prostatitis "I have taken this drug off and on for 5 years now. I use it for chronic pelvic pain syndrome. It works the best out of anything I have tried thus far. It takes most of my pain away, stops the frequent urination, but it does have side effects. When I first started taking it, my only side effect was dry mouth, which went away after two months. After a year, I built up a tolerance to the drug, and it has never worked the same since. The longest I can take it now is 1-2 weeks before it wears off. I usually take it when my symptoms are so bad that I must take medicine. Generally, I take it for a week straight, then go off of it. I get withdrawal-like symptoms for a day, and usually, my pain goes away for a week to two months, and then I repeat this cycle."

For Urinary Frequency "On this for nocturnal enuresis, and I am absolutely loving to have this medication, completely helps with my condition! Have not had any of the symptoms that some of the people's reviews on this website have seemed to experience! Have taken this for about a week and would definitely recommend this drug to someone with my condition or others seen in the reviews! I love this 10g extended relief med!"

For Urinary Frequency "Works very well for urgency, etc. An obscure side effect is diminished ability to achieve an erection (and I believe diminished sex drive as well). In addition, I developed dry mouth (no big deal). I tried the generic for Trospium extended release, which did not have the same issues but probably was less effective for bladder control. PS My bladder situation was mild to moderate."

"I have been suffering from hypersalivation in excess that could talk clearly and swallowing again and again. Many doctors could not find the proper reason for hypersalivation. I got all blood tests like CBC, CRP, ESR, creatinine, SGOT, SGPT, even ultrasound of salivary glands, which all are normal. Thyroid reports are also normal. But hypersalivation is there. Now my doctor has suggested folic acid, B12, and oxybutynin 20 mg in the day. Started today, slightly decreased in hypersalivation. If the dry mouth is its side effect, it's okay because I myself want my mouth dry because I have hypersalivation. Hope for the best."
