IF I am not mistaken Detrol is for bladder control

Bladder control. My daughter took it when she was 5. She would get bladder spasams. After 2 years we were able to take her off it and she is 12 now and if she drinks even a sip of caffine the sapsams come bake, but don't use detrol anymore.

Detrol is a med to help with bladdercontrol. That is, you leak urine sometimes. It is also called stress incontinence and a lot of people, especially women, deal with it.
