for Women Overactive Bladder Transdermal Patch, 8 Count (Pack of 3)

Suggested by urologist to manage overactive bladder. Really helpful and allows me to avoid taking a higher prescription only dose of the same. Combined with physical therapy I hope to avoid stronger meds.

These are good for twice weekly patches.

These were recommended to me by my physician. At first I thought they were awesome but after about a month they didn’t seem as effective as they were at first. I’ll keep using them and see how it goes.

I start this review with go to a urologist before using and tell them frequency, urgency, and if you have pain. I have Interstitial Cystitis which is a urological issue with the bladder lining. I suffered for two years after the birth of my 2nd child. I had to go to the bathroom every 5-10 minutes, 24 hours a day and had pain. Basically I had all the symptoms of an UTI. After 7 months I was sleep deprived and depressed. I was put on depression medication but the reason was not addressed and I had a wonderful family doctor. For 2 years, doctors after doctor, tests and even surgery for endometriosis and I got no relief. Doctors asked if I went to the restroom a lot which I said yes but that I had delivered two children 3 years apart. Once I told the doctors that they did not pursue the issue. I was told that you naturally go to the bathroom more after children. Finally my family doctor sent me to a new on-gyn. That wonderful man asked the bathroom question but wanted details like how often, if I felt urgency, and if I had pain. When I gave him the information he sent me upstairs to a urologist who treated people with IC. So this product helps me but please get checked if you have a peeing issue! Add details that is females don’t reveal unless asked. This disease affects men also but is a primarily a female issue! Oxytrol can be helpful with people with IC like me. So while some people may not get relief with Oxytrol it is good for some medical issues that are incurable. It is treatable but not curable. I could not get by without it!

I’ve recommended to a couple of my friends and they say it works too.

A woman of a 'certain age' I am a bit prone to urgent bladder. It's o.k. when I'm home but a bit nervewracking when traveling or out in public. I've been using these patches for travel for a number of years and they do work. One patch placed on the lower abdomen lasts four days. They are not prone to coming off during a shower or swimming. They're indetectable under clothing. And they do help that urgency situation.

Seems to give me extra time to make it to the bathroom. I’m a little fuzzy headed when first applied so I apply patch just before I go to bed.

It does not cause side effects like pill does. Does not work more than 25%..wish it were stronger
