Re: Medications for Incontinence>I was taken off the drug

[Guest guest]

My neurologist told me the exact same thing. Unfortunately, he told me

after I started taking it and couldn't get out of bed. I remember lying on

my bed, not being able to get up because of the weakness from OH, the phone

ringing and my answering machine picking up his call. He said Ditropan

lowers the blood pressure, so stop taking it because it was probably the

cause of me fainting.
