Intravenous Ibuprofen (Caldolor)

Abstract

once daily to dry, intact skin on the abdomen, upper arms/shoulders or thighs. The gel should be gently rubbed into the skin until it dries; patients should not shower for 1 hour after application. The same application site should not be used on consecutive days. CONCLUSIONOxybutynin topical gel (Gelnique) offers a modestly effective alternative to oral medications for treatment of overactive bladder. How it compares in efficacy to other formulations of oxybutynin or to any other antimuscarinic drug approved to treat overactive bladder remains to be determined. The gel may cause a lower incidence of local skin reactions than the transdermal patch formulation of oxybutynin and might, like the patch, cause less dry mouth and constipation than oral formulations.
