Comment:
Everyone should be taking fiber supplements while taking Detral La. This medication can cause chronic constipation. Drink plenty of water. Detral La completely ruined my life.

Comment:
This has worked great for my little girl, she was unable to even go to school when her symptoms were at their worst. She is now leading a normal life. However, she has been on it for 6 months now and her side effects are weight gain, sore legs especially at night and I have noticed bruising, not sure if this is related. Going to try and reduce the dosage and see what happens.

Comment:
I've been on this drug for probably 6 years and all of a sudden I began to have back pain everyday. I quit taking it and the pain went away. When I restarted it, I once again had
back pain. I truly belive it was from the medicine.

Comment:
My problem got worse and I had to go more often. I was drosey, my entire body was dry and the more water I drank the more I had to go (5-6 times a night and 10 -12 times before noon). Took it for 2 weeks and had to discontinue.
