But they tend to aggravate bladder pain (http://books.google.nl/books?id=TW937x75xUsC&pg=PA81&lpg=PA81&dq=anticholinergic+%2B+bladder+pain&source=bl&ots=wNb9lRnRBr&sig=JUVdGMqRHMKMFYV3d9ocx-oY-Ns&hl=nl&ei=GH5xSsKCEdyOsAbE3omRDA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7).
I don't think low dose imipramine would be a problem though, it's not that anticholinergic.
