Amian G replied: "I noticed it the 1st dose. I used to have horrible overactive bladder, woke me up 5x a night!! Felt great to actually have undisturbed sleep the first time in years. However, I'm not sure if that is the case for everyone. Some cases of overactive bladder are psychogenic, so it may have just been the placebo effect. Others causes beyond that e.g. involving something inherent about innervation and/or muscles themselves, the results may take longer to notice or eventually the patient may see the doctor again for new therapies because the underlying cause may not be fully addressed."

Does Detrol LA take time to work? I have been taking Detrol LA for 2 weeks for overactive bladder and have no improvement. Does it take time to work?
Serious replies only.
Lempster replied: "There really is no definitive answer to your question. Detrol LA is mostly broken down in the liver. How you respond to treatment and your dosage depend on your degree of liver function, and some people break down these drugs more slowly.
There are other ways to help control your bladder including diet changes and exercises. Visit detrolla.com to read more information."

Is Detrol LA a short term treatment or once you start taking it you have to continue for life? I recently went to my regular doctor where he put me on three different types of antibiotics treating me for a UTI, after three weeks I was still having problems so he referred me to a urologist, The urologist had me get a CT scan to check to see if I had a kidney stone stuck in a tube that was pressing against my bladder. Due to me having to use the restroom every 10 minutes he had me start on Detrol LA. The CT came back negative but he did not give me any other information of what my problem might be and I was not sure about the Detrol LA whether it is just a short term med or is this something I will need to continue with from here on.

honna replied: "Ditropan (oxybutynin) has really helped me. It may have the same
side effects that you have with Detrol. (Dry mouth, drowsiness, rapid heart beat).
Before spending money on another visit to the Doctor and on

dosage?
I also skip some days when I know I'm going to be home all day."
