Frequently asked questions about Oxybutynin

What is Oxybutynin used for?

Oxybutynin is being developed for urge urinary incontinence and urinary frequency. Halozyme Therapeutics is studying a topically administered gel formulation in this indication. The Phase 3 trial enrolled adults 18 years and older of all sexes in the United States. Oxybutynin is a small molecule therapeutic candidate.

What does Oxybutynin target?

Oxybutynin targets the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors CHRM2 and CHRM3, acting as an antagonist. By blocking these receptors, it is designed to reduce bladder muscle contractions associated with urge urinary incontinence and urinary frequency. This mechanism underlies its development as a small molecule therapy for these urologic symptoms.

Who is developing Oxybutynin?
