Hello I Am On Oxybutynin And When I Try And
Question: Hello I am on Oxybutynin and when i try and walk my legs feel like they are giving out.My whole body shakes and i feel nausiated
Brief Answer:
Symptoms may require further evaluation
Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir/Ma'am
I can certainly understand your concern.
I have worked through your attached query in detail.
These symptoms could be drug related adverse effects incase if you have just started taking Oxybutynin recently. In such case stop further intake of the drug after discussing with your physician.
In case if you are using the pill for quite sometime, then these symptoms are probably not related to Oxybutynin and thus should be carefully evaluated to rule out vascular accidents related to brain. The incidence of these symptoms are high in individuals above 40 years of age in both sexes.
In the later case it's advisable to get an MRI SCAN OF BRAIN and record blood pressure and sugar levels at the baseline and consult an expert Neurologist to rule out vascular events related to brain.
Post your further questions if any,
Thank you.
