When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.
Consumer:The use of oxybutynin is contraindicated in patients with uncontrolled angle-closure (narrow angle) or narrow anterior chamber glaucoma. Oxybutynin exerts anticholinergic activity (1/5 that of atropine) and can result in increased intraocular pressure and loss of accommodation.
