Ditropan is used to treat a number of urinary tract conditions. It is prescribed for people with overactive bladder, a condition that causes a frequent and sudden need to urinate along with the possibility of leakage or urinary incontinence. The medication helps relieve urinary incontinence caused by uncontrollable contractions of the bladder muscle. Ditropan is also prescribed for people with bladder problems resulting from neurological disorders that affect bladder function, such as spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis. It is sometimes used to reduce spasms or pain associated with the urinary tract that may arise as a result of certain medical or surgical procedures.
