Suggest Ways To Wean Off Of Oxybutynin

I have been taking Vesicare 10mg daily for the last 6-7 months. Because of insurance I have been switched to another drug called Oxybutynin. I feel that it is Dangerous to stop a drug that s in your system & working then, suddenly start another, even if it is for the same thing. I finished the last pill Wed. was told to continue on with new pill and I m scared to death
