In vitro studies have shown that its anticholinergic effects are weaker than those of atropine, but it possesses greater antispasmodic activity. No blocking effects occur at skeletal neuromuscular junctions or in autonomic ganglia (no antinicotinic effects). In addition to its smooth muscle relaxing effects, oxybutynin exerts an analgesic and a local anesthetic effect. In animal studies the central nervous system and cardiovascular actions of oxybutynin were shown to be similar to but weaker than those of atropine. Oxybutynin relaxes bladder smooth muscle. In patients with uninhibited neurogenic and reflex neurogenic bladder, cystometric studies have demonstrated that oxybutynin increases bladder (vesical) capacity, diminishes the frequency of uninhibited contractions of the detrusor muscle, and delays the initial desire to void. Oxybutynin thus decreases urgency and the frequency of both incontinent episodes and voluntary urination. These effects are more consistently improved in patients with uninhibited neurogenic bladder. Oxybutynin chloride is readily absorbed from the gastro-intestinal tract. The onset of action is _Product Monograph – RIVA-OXYBUTYNIN _ _Page 3 of 15_ approximately one hour after an oral dose and its duration 6 to 10 hours. The results of the present investigation show that no statistical difference could be detected for all the pharmacokinetic p Baca dokumen lengkap
