I am taking ditropan for about a month now and it makes me sooo thirsty. I get wicked dry mouth and my skin is very dry also!

I've been taking Driptane since last November. I'm sick of the dry mouth but it's way better than the IC pain. For eyes/hands I don't know what to do, but for the mouth I sip water. And eating and swallowing can be a huge problem too.

Stick with it!

I also take ditropanxl and pyridium plus and I get the dry mouth too. I keep an insulated cup of ice water beside me all the time, and it helps a lot or chew some gum. that helps too.good luck and hope you have a painfree day. grouphug grouphug

It destroys my sinuses and throat after about a week of taking it.
