Description
Elmiron (pentosan polysulfate sodium) is an oral medication that serves as the only FDA-approved treatment for interstitial cystitis (IC), also known as painful bladder syndrome. It is classified as a heparin-like compound. Elmiron provides relief by attaching to the bladder wall mucosa, presumably forming a protective layer that shields the bladder from irritants in urine. This action reduces the chronic pain, urgency, and frequency of urination associated with IC.
