CAS 5633-20-5: Oxybutynin
Description:Oxybutynin is a synthetic anticholinergic medication primarily used to treat overactive bladder and urinary incontinence. It functions by inhibiting the action of acetylcholine on muscarinic receptors in the bladder, leading to decreased bladder contractions and increased bladder capacity. Oxybutynin is characterized by its chemical formula C18H21NO3 and a molecular weight of approximately 301.37 g/mol. It is typically available in various formulations, including immediate-release and extended-release tablets, as well as transdermal patches. The substance is known for its moderate lipophilicity, which facilitates its absorption and distribution in the body. Common side effects may include dry mouth, constipation, dizziness, and blurred vision, attributable to its anticholinergic properties. Oxybutynin is metabolized primarily in the liver, and its pharmacokinetics can be influenced by factors such as age and liver function. Overall, oxybutynin is an effective therapeutic option for managing symptoms associated with urinary urgency and frequency.
