ARE THERE MEDS NOT TO TAKE WITH BARRETT'S ESOPHAGUS

I have been prescribed Gelnique (Oxybutinin) for Overactive Bladder.   All accompanying literature states to advise your doctor if you have Acid Reflux.   I have had acid reflux for years, leading to Barrett's Esophagus.  The Urology Center didn't seem concerned but I have been giving some thought as to whether it is safe to take.  Anyone have any ideas about this?

Hi....ur best bet is to call ur GI dr and advise him...or check with the Pharmacist at ur drug store they should be able to advise u  on what u can take so u r safe.
