Sanctura contains the active ingredient trospium chloride. It is a prescription medication used to treat overactive bladder (OAB) in adults.

Overactive bladder is a condition in which the bladder muscle contracts too often or at the wrong time, even when the bladder is not full. This can create a sudden need to urinate and make bladder control more difficult.

Overactive Bladder

Sanctura is used to help manage the main symptoms of overactive bladder, including:

  • Urinary urgency, which is a sudden and difficult-to-control need to urinate
  • Urinary frequency, which means needing to urinate more often than usual
  • Urge urinary incontinence, which is urine leakage that occurs when the urge to urinate is too strong to control

These symptoms can interfere with sleep, work, travel, exercise, and everyday activities.

What Causes Overactive Bladder Symptoms?

The bladder stores urine until you are ready to urinate.

Normally, the bladder muscle stays relaxed while the bladder fills. When it is time to urinate, the bladder muscle contracts and pushes urine out.

With overactive bladder, the bladder muscle may contract unexpectedly. These involuntary contractions can create urgency, frequent trips to the bathroom, or urine leakage.

How Sanctura Works

Sanctura belongs to a class of medications called anticholinergics, also known as antimuscarinic medications.

Trospium blocks the action of a chemical messenger called acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors in the bladder.

Acetylcholine normally signals the bladder muscle to contract. By blocking this signal, Sanctura helps reduce unwanted bladder contractions.

How Sanctura Helps Improve Bladder Control

By relaxing the bladder muscle, Sanctura may help:

  • Reduce sudden urges to urinate
  • Increase the amount of time between bathroom visits
  • Reduce how often you need to urinate
  • Decrease episodes of urge-related urine leakage
  • Improve overall bladder control

The response to treatment can vary from person to person.

Sanctura Does Not Cure Overactive Bladder

Sanctura helps control the symptoms of overactive bladder, but it does not permanently cure the condition.

Symptoms may return if treatment is stopped. Your healthcare provider will determine how long you should continue taking Sanctura based on your response, side effects, and overall treatment plan.

Role in Overactive Bladder Treatment

Sanctura may be used together with behavioral and lifestyle strategies to improve bladder control.

These may include:

  • Bladder training
  • Scheduled bathroom visits
  • Pelvic floor exercises
  • Avoiding or reducing caffeine and other bladder irritants
  • Managing fluid intake
  • Treating constipation when present
  • Maintaining a healthy weight

Using medication together with these strategies may provide better symptom control for some patients.

When Improvement May Occur

Some people may begin to notice improvement in urinary urgency or frequency within the first few weeks of treatment.

The full benefit may take longer, so it is important to take Sanctura regularly as prescribed unless your healthcare provider tells you to stop.

Regular Follow-Up

Your healthcare provider may review:

  • How often you urinate
  • How often you experience urgency
  • Whether urine leakage has improved
  • Side effects such as dry mouth or constipation
  • Kidney function
  • Whether the medication is still providing enough benefit

Your dose or treatment plan may be adjusted based on these findings.

Long-Term Treatment

Sanctura may be used for an extended period if it continues to control symptoms and is well tolerated.

Do not stop Sanctura or change your dose without speaking with your healthcare provider.

Sanctura contains trospium chloride and is taken by mouth.

For regular Sanctura tablets, the usual recommended dose is 20 mg twice daily.

Take each dose at about the same times every day to help you remember your medication and maintain a consistent treatment schedule.

Take Sanctura on an Empty Stomach

Sanctura tablets should generally be taken on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before a meal.

Food, especially a high-fat meal, can reduce how much trospium your body absorbs.

Recommended Adult Dose

The usual adult dose is:

20 mg twice daily

Your healthcare provider may recommend a different dose depending on your kidney function, age, side effects, and overall medical condition.

Dose Adjustments

People with severe kidney impairment may need a lower dose, such as 20 mg once daily at bedtime.

Older adults may also require a reduced dose if side effects are difficult to tolerate.

Your healthcare provider will determine the safest dose for you.

Take Sanctura Exactly as Prescribed

Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully.

Do not take more Sanctura, take it more often, or change your dosing schedule without speaking with your healthcare provider.

If any part of your dosing instructions is unclear, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

Take Sanctura Regularly

Take Sanctura consistently to get the most benefit from treatment.

It may take some time before you notice the full improvement in urinary urgency, frequency, or urge incontinence.

Continue taking Sanctura as prescribed unless your healthcare provider tells you to stop.

What to Do If You Miss a Dose

If you miss a dose of Sanctura, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled dose.

If your next dose is due soon, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.

Do not take two doses at the same time or take extra Sanctura to make up for a missed dose.

Bladder or Urinary Obstruction

Use Sanctura cautiously if you have difficulty emptying your bladder or a condition that blocks urine flow.

Because Sanctura relaxes the bladder muscle, it may increase the risk of urinary retention in some people.

Contact your healthcare provider if you are unable to urinate, have severe lower abdominal discomfort, or notice a major change in urine flow.

Gastrointestinal Obstruction

Tell your healthcare provider if you have a condition that slows or blocks movement through the stomach or intestines.

Sanctura has anticholinergic effects and may reduce gastrointestinal movement, which can worsen certain obstructive conditions.

Kidney Problems

Tell your healthcare provider if you have kidney disease.

Trospium is removed mainly through the kidneys, so reduced kidney function can increase the amount of medication in your body and raise the risk of side effects.

People with severe kidney impairment may need a lower dose or less frequent dosing.

Narrow-Angle Glaucoma

Use Sanctura cautiously if you have controlled narrow-angle glaucoma.

Anticholinergic medications can increase pressure inside the eye in susceptible people.

Seek medical attention if you develop sudden eye pain, blurred vision, red eyes, or halos around lights.

Dry Mouth and Constipation

Common side effects of Sanctura include:

  • Dry mouth
  • Constipation
  • Headache
  • Blurred vision

These effects are often mild, but contact your healthcare provider if they become severe, persistent, or difficult to manage.

Dizziness and Drowsiness

Sanctura may cause dizziness, drowsiness, or blurred vision.

Use caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing activities that require alertness until you know how Sanctura affects you.

Drug Interactions

Sanctura can interact with other medications, especially those with anticholinergic or antimuscarinic effects.

Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.

Using several anticholinergic medications together may increase side effects such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, confusion, or urinary retention.

Older Adults

Older adults may be more sensitive to anticholinergic side effects.

Your healthcare provider may monitor for constipation, urinary retention, dizziness, confusion, or other side effects and adjust treatment if needed.

Pediatric Use

The safety and effectiveness of Sanctura have not been established in children.

For this reason, Sanctura is generally not recommended for pediatric use unless a healthcare provider determines that it is appropriate.

Allergic Reactions

Do not take Sanctura if you have had a serious allergic reaction to trospium chloride or any ingredient in the medication.

Seek urgent medical attention if you develop swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, hives, or difficulty breathing.

Take Sanctura Only as Prescribed

Do not increase or decrease your Sanctura dose on your own.

Your healthcare provider may adjust treatment based on kidney function, age, side effects, and how well your overactive bladder symptoms are controlled.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Sanctura?

Alcohol may increase the drowsiness or dizziness that can occur with Sanctura. Until you know how Sanctura affects you, use caution with alcohol and avoid activities such as driving or operating machinery if you feel sleepy, dizzy, or have blurred vision. The specific instruction to avoid alcohol within 2 hours applies to the extended-release formulation, not regular Sanctura tablets.

Should I take Sanctura with or without food?

Regular Sanctura tablets should be taken on an empty stomach, either at least 1 hour before a meal or when your stomach is otherwise empty. Take each dose with water. Food can reduce the amount of trospium your body absorbs, so taking Sanctura away from meals helps the medication work as intended.

Can I stop taking Sanctura?

Do not stop Sanctura without speaking with your healthcare provider if you are using it regularly to control overactive bladder symptoms. Sanctura does not usually cause withdrawal symptoms, but urinary urgency, frequency, or urge incontinence may return after treatment is stopped. Your healthcare provider can help determine whether you still need treatment or whether another overactive bladder treatment would be more appropriate.
