I have had very good luck with Lexapro and klonopin. I have been on these two for ages and i know they didn't cause my IC. I just developed IC this year. You might want to ask your doctor about combining those two. or any other options for anxiety, etc-Pammylynn Rose

Medications can effect us so differently. If you're doing well on a specific medication, I suggest you continue with it. It would be wonderful if we all reacted the same to medications and treatments, wouldn't it?

I agree with Donna. I don't think there are any specific meds that help more or less for IC patients; it's just about finding the best one for you. Like I took Klonopin and Lexapro and had horrid side effects that made me stop taking them. I would just make sure that the medication you choose doesn't interact poorly with any IC meds you are currently taking (if you are).
I hope you find something to relieve your anxiety!Comment
