Have you checked the ICN Shop?
Click on ICN Shop at the top of this page. You'll find Bladder Builder and Bladder Rest, both of which we are finding have excellent results.

I take a high dose of lexapro, another SSRI, and I have had no problem with it. I have been on for 9 years. I am wondering if doctors might want to try another kind of SSRI then?

You should look into it, especially since Lexapro is very closely related to Celexa.
If you google "difference between celexa and lexapro" you will find that the side effects are different --- it is an interesting comparison.
If you have concerns, by all means discuss them with the ordering physician.
