Flavoxate hydrochloride  (Synonyms: Rec-7-0040; DW61)

Flavoxate hydrochloride is a potent and competitive phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor. Flavoxate hydrochloride is an antispasmodic agent and muscarinic mAChR antagonist. Flavoxate hydrochloride shows moderate calcium antagonistic activity and local anesthetic effect. Flavoxate hydrochloride can be used for the research of overactive bladder (OAB) and lower urinary tract infections^[1].
