View Full Version : Sanctura no better than Detrol for me

I tried Sanctura for a couple of weeks, but my nocturia stayed the same. Unfortunately, it seemed to have altered my absorption of Alprazolam, so I had trouble getting to sleep each time I was up. It wasn't awful, but it wasn't an improvement over Detrol, either. Oh well, another treatment tried.

I have been on Sanctura for a couple weeks also (was already on elmiron, urised, ditropan XL, estrace vag creme, cystoproteck).
When
Sanctura was added to the mix I became so constipated I was miserable, it's a long story cuz I called the uro the nurse told me to call my family doc, he gave me a script for constipation. The nurse told me not to quit taking the medicine. Anyway, I quit taking the Sanctura 3 days ago and the bowels are getting better. (I know my body better than the nurse). It slowed my system down way to much. I plan on talking to the URO on my next appt on the 27th.
Sanctura did help my leakage but the side affects were to much for me.

I had no luck with it either. Actually voided more on it then without it.
