Currently the only bladder control medication available in patch for is oxybutynin (Oxytrol). As far as buying it online, two factors are involved:

 

1. Do you have overactive bladder (OAB), the specific type of incontinence this drug is indicated for?

 

2. Oxybutynin is a prescription medication and must be prescribed by a doctor, so no -- it cannot be purchased online.

 

Here's some additional info:
