Safely Buy Ditropan XL ( Oxybutynin XL ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Ditropan XL is a brand name for oxybutynin chloride, which is a medication used to treat overactive bladder and urinary conditions.

Ditropan XL works by relaxing the muscles in the bladder to reduce the frequency of urination and the urgency to urinate.

Use and Dosage

Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once a day. The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to therapy.
