SANCTURA XR vs TOLTERODINE
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Trospium is an antimuscarinic agent that competitively inhibits acetylcholine at muscarinic receptors, reducing bladder detrusor muscle contractions.
Competitive antagonist of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (M1, M2, M3, M4, M5), with selectivity for the M3 receptor subtype involved in detrusor muscle contraction, reducing bladder smooth muscle contractility and increasing bladder capacity.
60 mg orally once daily, taken with a full glass of water at least 1 hour before meals. Extended-release capsule.
2 mg PO twice daily; may reduce to 1 mg twice daily if tolerated.

Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 7-10 hours in patients with normal renal function; prolonged to 20-30 hours in moderate to severe renal impairment.
Clinical Note
moderateTolterodine + Sulfisoxazole
"The metabolism of Sulfisoxazole can be decreased when combined with Tolterodine."
Clinical Note
moderateTolterodine + Cyclosporine
"The metabolism of Cyclosporine can be decreased when combined with Tolterodine."
Clinical Note
moderateTolterodine + Fluconazole
"The metabolism of Fluconazole can be decreased when combined with Tolterodine."
Clinical Note
moderateTolterodine + Clotrimazole
Terminal elimination half-life is 2-4 hours in extensive CYP2D6 metabolizers; increased to 4-10 hours in poor metabolizers or with CYP3A4 inhibitors.
Primarily renal excretion (70-80% as unchanged drug and active metabolite); approximately 10% fecal; 5-10% biliary.
Primarily hepatic metabolism via CYP2D6 and CYP3A4; renal excretion accounts for <5% of unchanged drug; ~80% excreted in urine as metabolites, ~20% in feces.
