[Instability of the detrusor. Treatment with oxybutynin chloride (Ditropan) in children].
We study the effect of oxybutynin chloride (Ditropan) in a random sample of 24 children with ages ranging from 5 to 14 years, diagnosed as having vesical instability from both the clinical and urodynamic standpoints. These effects were evaluated after a period of treatment that ranged from 10 to 36 months (x = 20). We obtained overall clinical improvement in 87.5%, and improvement of urodynamic alterations in 83.3% of the patients. We single out the beneficial effect of oxybutynin chloride with prolonged treatments, in instability of the detrusor, as well as its good tolerance.
