Additionally, Oxyspas 2.5 Tablet 10's is used to treat night-time bed-wetting in children above 5 years when other treatments have not worked.

Overactive bladder (OAB): The contraction or tightening of bladder muscles causes bladder spasms. This is termed an overactive bladder. Continuous contractions may cause an urge to urinate. Overactive bladder is characterised by involuntary leakage of urine, excessive urination, and urgent need to urinate. The common causes of bladder spasms are urinary tract infections, drinking too much caffeine or alcohol, diabetes, constipation, impaired kidney function, bladder stones, enlarged prostate, or neurological disorders. Overactive bladder symptoms include urinating more than 8 times in a day and more than 2 times at night, strong and sudden need to urinate, leakage of urine, and loss of bladder control.
