Guest guest Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I've done Detrol. I am now on Ditropan. Yes I have dry mouth (I live for my water bottles). I have not had any problems with dry eyes with my contacts. I found that the Ditropan has worked the best. Bladder meds I'm having burning when I pee now. I had some leftover Pyridium from a couple weeks ago when I had the bladder infection so I'm taking that. I had taken Bactrim for 7days but now I think it didn't really work. I'm going to have to go to the Urologist this week. I'm calling tomorrow. What I wanted to know is what you all think of the meds that are covered by my insurance. They are Enablex & Vesicare are my first choices. It covers Ditropan but I remember people saying the dry mouth was horrible. Plus I wear contacts so I'm sure dry eyes would be an issue.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 I think that Pyridium is a mild pain reliever; I think that I was told not to take it for more than two days, save on the advice of my doctor; it is NOT an antibiotic; and that charming red color can really mess up contact lenses if there is contact from your fingers--I know!

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 , I have taken Vesicare. It was fine. I stopped all bladder meds. I just fight it with diet and lots of water.
