Summary

This is a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial designed to compare the efficacy and safety of transdermal versus oral oxybutynin in children diagnosed with overactive bladder (OAB) who remain symptomatic despite conservative management. A total of 90 children were planned to be enrolled and randomized to receive either oral oxybutynin suspension or a transdermal oxybutynin patch. The primary outcome was defined as the change in Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Symptom Score (DVISS) from baseline to the end of the treatment period. Secondary outcomes included changes in urinary frequency, voided volume, maximum flow rate (Qmax), and the incidence of adverse events. The study aimed to assess whether the transdermal route of administration provides an alternative therapeutic option with favorable tolerability in pediatric OAB patients.

Conditions

  • Overactive Bladder (OAB)
  • Drug Delivery Systems
  • Anticholinergic Side Effects
  • Children and Adolescents, Boys and Girls

Interventions

DRUG

Oral Oxybutynin

The oral form of oxybutinin was preferred for patients who had no difficulty swallowing and whose families preferred a conventional administration route. Medication was given under parental supervision to ensure adherence. Patients were monitored monthly for potential anticholinergic side effects. The patch form of oxybutinin was chosen for patients who experienced difficulties with oral intake or had previous intolerance to oral anticholinergics. Application sites were rotated to reduce the risk of local skin reactions. Families received instructions on proper patch application technique.
