Abstract :Oxybutynin chloride is the only anticholinergic drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of over active bladder in children and can be used in neurogenic bladder and enuresis. Studies have reported that anticholinergic drugs can be frequently abused and oxybutynin is thought to have a potential for addiction due to its euphoric and hallucinogenic effects. Adolescence is risky in terms of substance use disorder and case reports on oxybutynin abuse have been reported in recent years. In this case report, considering the frequent use of oxybutynin in the pediatric population, the importance of clinicians being careful about oxybutynin abuse was emphasized.
