GENERIC NAME: oxybutynin. BRAND NAME: Ditropan (discontinued brand in the US); Ditropan XL; Oxytrol; Anturol; Gelnique. DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Oxybutynin is an oral drug that is used for treating urinary bladder spasm. Oxybutynin has a dual mechanism of action. Contraction of the smooth muscle of the bladder is stimulated by the release of acetylcholine by the nerves within the bladder and the attachment of the acetylcholine to receptors on the surface of the bladder's muscle cells.
What Ditropan is used for. Ditropan is used to decrease the urgency and the frequency of urination. Ditropan works by relaxing the bladder smooth muscle and helps to decrease muscle spasm. This delays the initial desire and the urge to urinate. Your doctor may have prescribed Ditropan for another reason.
