Detrunorm is an easy, discreet treatment for urinary incontinence. It helps you control your bladder and is a powerful treatment for urge incontinence. Urge incontinence is a type of urinary incontinence where you get a sudden, overwhelming need to urinate.
You take a Detrunorm tablet everyday and it helps you control your bladder, so you don’t get unexpected strong urges or leakage. With Detrunorm tablets or modified release capsules, you can manage your incontinence so you can live life freely again.
How does Detrunorm work?
The active ingredient in Detrunorm is propiverine hydrochloride, a type of drug called an antimuscarinic. These medications block the action of receptors in the lining of your bladder called M3 receptors.
The M3 receptors in your bladder control how it contracts. So when they’re less sensitive, it allows you to have better control over your bladder and less overwhelming urges. This helps reduce your urinary incontinence.
What doses of Detrunorm are there?
Detrunorm can be used in different ways. There’s a standard release 15mg tablet that you can take up to three times a day, and a modified-release capsule that’s available as a 30mg or 45mg dose. The capsules only need to be taken once a day.
The exact amount of Detrunorm you take will depend on how bad your symptoms are. You’ll often start on a lower dose of Detrunorm. If this isn’t enough to control your symptoms, go back and talk to your clinician. A higher dose of Detrunorm might be needed to handle your urinary incontinence.

What should I do if I make a mistake while taking Detrunorm?
If you forget to take Detrunorm, just skip your missed dose. Take the next one at your normal time and carry on with treatment as normal. Detrunorm can sometimes cause drowsiness. If you don’t feel fully alert, don’t drive.

FAQ: Detrunorm
Have something specific you want to know? Search our info below, or ask our experts a question if you can’t find what you’re looking for.
How is Detrunorm different from other treatments for urinary incontinence?
Answer:
A lot of treatments for urinary incontinence are focused on lifestyle changes, like bladder training, pelvic floor exercises, losing weight if you are overweight and using incontinence products. These changes can help with managing incontinence but may not be enough for your symptoms.
If both lifestyle changes and tablets have failed to control your urinary incontinence, you may want to look into surgery. There are a few different types of surgery for urinary incontinence. They’re a permanent solution, which can be a benefit or a drawback depending on if you like the results.
Is Detrunorm similar to any other treatments?
Answer:
There are a few other antimuscarinic drugs used for urinary incontinence, like Oxybutynin and Fesoterodine. These are in the same class of drugs, so they work in a very similar way.
But since they all have different active ingredients, one might suit you better than another. If you’re interested in treating your urge incontinence, talk to our clinicians about your symptoms. We can help you find the perfect option for you.
How effective is Detrunorm?
Answer:
Detrunorm tablets have strong results for improving urinary incontinence. A review of a number of studies found it was effective for treating incontinence, regardless of whether it was caused by problems with the nerves or brain. It’s suitable to use long-term, and has a lower rate of side effects than other drugs used for incontinence like Oxybutynin.
To make your Detrunorm treatment work even better, there are a few things you can do. Avoiding caffeinated drinks helps stop your symptoms from getting worse. Doing pelvic floor exercises can also help with managing your incontinence, by strengthening your muscles.
Do I need a prescription for Detrunorm?
Answer:
Yes, you can only get Detrunorm tablets on prescription. It’s only suitable for people with urge incontinence, so a clinician will need to make sure it’s right for you. We can help you figure out if Detrunorm might suit you when you talk to us.
