Drug Uses
Detrol LA capsules are once daily extended release capsules
indicated for the treatment of overactive bladder with symptoms
of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and frequency.
Detrol LA comes as a tablet and an extended-release
(long-acting) capsule to take by mouth. The tablet is usually
taken twice a day. The extended-release capsule is usually
taken once a day with liquids. Follow the directions on your
prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist
to explain any part you do not understand. Take Detrol LA
exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take
it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the
extended-release capsules whole; do not split, chew, or crush
them.
Do not take Detrol LA if you have a blockage
of the urinary tract (difficulty urinating); or a blockage
in the intestines. Before taking Detrol LA, tell your doctor
if you have liver disease; kidney disease; or glaucoma. You
may not be able to take Detrol LA, or you may require a dosage
adjustment or special monitoring if you have any of the conditions
listed above. Detrol LA is in the FDA pregnancy category C.
This means that it is not known whether Detrol LA will be
harmful to an unborn baby. Do not take Detrol LA without first
talking to your doctor if you are pregnant or could become
pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether Detrol
LA will harm a nursing infant. Do not take Detrol LA without
first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
If you miss a dose of this medicine, take
it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next
dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing
schedule. Do NOT take 2 doses at once.
If you experience an allergic reaction
(difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of
your lips, tongue, or face; or hives), stop taking Detrol
LA and seek emergency medical attention. Other, less serious
side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to take
Detrol LA and talk to your doctor if you experience dry mouth,
dryness of the eyes, blurred vision or large pupils, upset
stomach, headache, constipation, difficulty urinating, drowsiness,
or dizziness. Side effects other than those listed here may
also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that
seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.
Store at controlled room temperature 20?
to 25? C (68? to 77? F).
Seek emergency medical attention. Symptoms
of Detrol LA overdose are not known but might include restlessness,
tremor, irritability, seizures, delirium, hallucinations,
flushing, fever, nausea, vomiting, a fast heartbeat and possibly
coma.
Use caution when driving, operating machinery,
or performing other hazardous activities. Detrol LA may cause
dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision. If you experience
dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision, avoid these activities.
Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and
dizziness while taking Detrol LA. Avoid becoming overheated
in hot weather. Detrol LA may increase the risk of heat stroke
because it may decrease sweating. Drink plenty of fluid to
maintain adequate hydration.
