Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a symptom complex of chronic pelvic pain and urinary frequency in the absence of any urologic or systemic pathology. It is an idiopathic hypersensory condition of the bladder characterised by epithelial dysfunction, sensory nerve upregulation and mast cell activation.


Disease progression owing to a delay in diagnosis affects the quality of life. Successful management of IC necessitates prompt diagnosis with initiation of effective treatment interventions in the early stages of the disease. While traditional diagnosis was based on findings in severe and advances disease with procedures to establish the diagnosis, the current approach is based on patient history, physical examination, laboratory findings and symptom surveys.


In spite of considerable research, there are no universal consensuses on treatment protocols for IC. It usually consists of supportive, behavioural and pharmacological measures. A surgical approach is rarely warranted. The identification of clinical markers in the future may aid in ascertaining the aetiology and pathophysiology of IC.


However we had Elmiron as the only Medicine for the oral treatment of IC which is costly and hard to afford as regular medicine for long time, but we have a generic of Pentosan Polysulphate Sodium brand name COMFORA. which is much cheaper to afford and effective.
