I've heard that Cystoprotek can cause urinary frequency and bladder pain.
How long before those symptoms may subside? A few weeks, a month....?

Didn't work:
Detrol LA (didn't help symptoms), Pyridium 200mg isn't working very well anymore.
Tried:

Cystoprotek doesn't work for everyone, but I've never heard of it causing frequency or pain. It's not okay if you're allergic to shell fish, but otherwise it should be okay.
