My AZ Mayo urology doctor took me off of Oxybutynin, which I’d been on for many years. I can’t remember what his exact reasoning was, but he felt that the medication was now doing more harm than good.

Good morning @ldrlaw. That is exactly what my PCP said. I had been on Oxybutynin for several years. I posted above about my positive reactions to Myrbetriq. I was surprised that my Urologist had not heard of it or prescribed it. So my message today is to never bypass your PCP. What a great support she has been for 10 years. This is not the first time she has identified and proposed a medication change.

Her specialty is family care. She helps young kids prepare for school athletics and other activities. I sometimes think I am really one of her children.

I wonder how many other medications are also doing more harm than good as we learn more about our body's reactions.

Lately, I have read about OTC medications which have recently been found to still have
negative elements that were identified years ago. We all need to be our own advocates in many ways.

May you be safe, protected, and free of inner and outer harm.
