I've had IC for 24 years and now have to start taking a drug for osteoporosis. My bladder is very sensitive to many medications and want to know if anyone has had any success with either the pill form or the infusions/injections used to treat osteoporosis.

At least some of the osteoperosis drugs are taken only once a month. Before the osteo medications were developed, we had an aunt with osteoperosis --- I promise you that you don't want it. She actually fractured ribs turning over in bed.
Even if the monthly pill causes a flare for a few days, I would encourage you to go for it. I have absolutely no idea how an IC bladder might react, but I have seen osteo.
Sending encouraging hugs,
Donna
Stay safe

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.
