CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. METHENAMINE degrades in an acidic urine environment releasingformaldehyde which provides bactericidal or bacteriostatic action. Itis well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. 70%-90% reaches theurine unchanged at which point it is hydrolyzed if the urine is acidic.Within 24 hours it is almost completely (90%) excreted; of this at pHof 5, approximately 20% is formaldehyde. Protein binding someformaldehyde is bound to substances in the urine and surroundingtissues. Methenamine is freely distributed to body tissue and fluidsbut is not clinically significant as it does not hydrolyze at pHgreater than 6.8.SODIUM BIPHOSPHATE helps to maintain an acid pH in the urine necessary for the degradation of methenamine.PHENYL SALICYLATE releases salicylate, mild analgesic for pain.METHYLENE BLUE possesses weak antiseptic properties. It is wellabsorbed by the gastrointestinal tract and rapidly reduced toleukomethylene blue which is stabilizied in some combination form inthe urine. 75% is excreted unchanged. HYOSCYAMINE SULFATE is parasympatholytic which relaxes smooth muscles and thus produces an antispasmodic effect. It is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is rapidly distributed throughout the body tissues. Most is excreted in the urine within 12 hours, 13% to 50% being unchanged. Its biotransformation is hepatic. Its protein binding is moderate.

CONTRAINDICATIONS SECTION.
CONTRAINDICATIONS Hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients is possible. Risk benefits should be carefully considered when the following medical problems exist: cardiac disease (especially cardiac arrhythmias, congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, and mitral stenosis); gastrointestinal tract obstructive disease; glaucoma; myasthenia gravis, acute urinary retention may be precipitated in obstructive uropathy (such as bladder neck obstruction due to prostatic hypertrophy).

DRUG INTERACTIONS SECTION.
DRUG INTERACTIONS Drug Interactions because of this products effect on gastrointestinal motility andgastric emptying, it may decrease the absorption of other oralmedications during concurrent use such as: urinary alkalizers; thiazidediuretics (may cause the urine to become alkaline reducing theeffectiveness of methenamine by inhibiting its conversion toformaldehyde); antimuscarinics (concurrent use may intensifyantimuscarinic effects of hyoscyamine because of secondaryantimuscarinic activities of these medications);antacids/antidiarrheals (may reduce absorption of hyoscyamine,concurrent use with antacids may cause urine to become alkaline,reducing effectiveness of methenamine by inhibiting its conversion toformaldehyde). Doses of these medications should be spaced hour apartfrom doses of hyoscyamine; antimyasthenics (concurrent use withhyoscyamine may further reduce intestinal motility); ketoconazole(patients should be advised to take this combination at least hoursafter ketoconazole); monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors (concurrent usemay intensify antimuscarinic side effects), opioid (narcotic analgesicsmay result in increased risk of severe constipation); sulfonamides(these drugs may precipitate with formaldehyde in the urine, increasingthe danger of crystalluria). Patients should be advised that the urinemay become blue to blue-green and the feces may be discolored as aresult of the excretion of the Methylene blue.
