Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have headaches and nausea while on Oxybutynin. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are probably due to Oxybutynin as its side effect . I would suggest you to consult doctor who prescribed this drug . Doctor may alter the dose or prescribe substitute . Doctor may also refer you to neurologist for headache and nausea. For now drink plenty of water , take proper rest and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
