ABSTRACT
Two hundred and forty-five cases are presented, composed of 141 males and 104 females, ranging in ages from 1 month to 11 years and 10 months. Their most common complaint was vomiting followed by abdominal colic, then vomiting and abdominal colic, tenesmus, and lastly, tenesmus and abdominal colic. Of the 245 cases under study a total of 235 or 96% responded to treatment. Only 10 failed to respondIn conclusion, the authors believe that the big success achieved in the treatment of the various conditions mentioned above was due to the dual action of oxybutynin chloride, that is, a musculotropic action (Spasmolytic) and the anticholinergic action (anti-secretory) and also because of the acceptability of the taste of the drugThe dosage schedule was 0.1mg./Kg of body weight, given every 8 hours.
