What is elmiron?
Elmiron 100 mg Cap
Drug Name: PENTOSAN POLYSULFATE SOD-ORAL
Other Brand Names: Elmiron
Uses: This medication is used to treat pain/discomfort from a certain bladder disorder (interstitial cystitis). It may work by forming a layer on the bladder wall and protecting it from harmful/irritating substances in the urine. It is also a weak "blood thinner" and therefore may increase the risk of bruising/bleeding (e.g., bleeding from the nose/gums).
