What Are The Side Effects Of Oxybutynin Dose?
When I took oxnybutnin I had problems with loss of words as compared with regular memory loss. Changed to Trospium and now seem to have even more loss of words and also seem to confuse words with similar letters or sounds. Is this a common side effect, and if so, will it cease if I stop this med?

I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way.
Did you have any of these symptoms before taking these meds?
These side effects have not really been reported for these drugs though dowsines, lack of concentration like symptoms have been reported in trials..if these symptoms hapened before you started these drugs then they aren't related to these drugs
and if they started after using them then do two things
(1) Leave their use for some time and see if they improve.
(2) Consult your doctor if they improve get an alternate medicine and if they don.t improve in a week ask and discuss for a psychiatrist referral ,psychiatrist have certain memmory drills and brain exercises which improve such brain functions and you will be fine
