Can I Take Oxybutynin For Bladder Spasms Caused After Having Kidney Stone Removed?
I had a kidney stone (large) removed surgically on Sat 11/30/13. A stent was left in to be removed in a week. I was given oxybutynin for bladder spasms and toreador for pain. I continued to experience sever bladder spasms. I started AZO this morning. Not helping. I called my doctor and she prescribed .4 Flomax. Should I take my last dose of AZO yet today?? The flomax so far has made me dizzy. I can t wait for the rest of the effects to kick in.

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have undergone surgery for removal of stone in kidney and D.J stent has been placed in your renal unit.
The bladder spasm that you are getting are due to the irritation of the trigone by lower end of the stent .
Please continue taking Oxybutinine .These spasms will get subsided after the stent is removed.
