I have been offline for a few months and am wondering if there are any new medications for IC other than the usual that go along with Elmiron?
I heard someone say they saw something about IC meds on TV
I havent heard of any new meds out on the market as of yet. Elmiron is the newest & most widely used, of course. However, there is alot of reserach going on to help find a CURE for IC..which is great!
I think docs are now just expermenting with a variety of diff. drugs, like antidepressants, tricyclics. What kind of med did you see on TV for IC??
