There is always Probantheline which also causes dry mouth but I don't think it
causes Alzheimers.

I have been on ditropan or the generic for more than 30 years...no problems. It
still works.I have not had any signs of dementia or other problems. Rose

My big worry now about Ditropan is recent research showing it increases risk of
developing dementia/Alzheimer's/cognitive health problems. I've been taking it
for a decade. I was also a long-term regular user of Benadryl for chronic
allergies. Benadryl was identified in that same research as another high risk
factor.
All of this becomes super scary for me, because Alzheimer's runs and family. My
father is in the late stages of the disease.
At 48, I have to be focusing on preventative measures. with 30 years of
quadriplegia under my belt I can't assume I'll be dead before I get into my 60s
and 70s when Alzheimer's risk is increasingly common.
I've asked my urologist for alternatives to Ditropan. he says there are some
but he has to research them – – that was months ago.
Have any of you been on a similar drug that was as effective as Ditropan?
Thanks everybody

I took Ditropan for awhile, but it gave me very weird dreams, almost panic
dreams. I'd wake up startled out of breath.
I had to stop. Plus a very dry mouth.
