Interstitial Cystitis (IC), also called Painful Bladder Syndrome (PBS), is as bad as it sounds. While there is no known cure for this disorder, CystoProtek can help reduce bladder damage and pain, improving the overall symptoms in patients with IC/PBS.

An all natural oral dietary supplement in a soft gel capsule.

CystoProtek is a clinically tested supplement that does not require a prescription.

Clinically Proven Effective
IC/PBS is a chronic inflammation of the bladder that occurs more in women, but also affects men. Varying from fairly mild to extremely painful, symptoms can include urinary urgency, urinary frequency, nocturia and pelvic pain. The Interstitial Cystitis Association reports that recent data indicates there are more than 700,000 cases of IC in the U.S. For the hundreds of thousands whose lives are significantly impaired due to pain and the need to urinate excessively, CystoProtek was demonstrated in two clinical studies to be effective in reducing the pain and symptoms of IC patients.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties
This natural oral dietary supplement comes in a soft gel capsule form. Cystoprotek is made with anti-inflammatory properties glucosamine, quercetin and rutin to help reduce bladder damage and pain, and glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronate sodium help replenish the damaged glycosaminoglycan (GAG) protective layer in the bladder. Chondroitin sulfate is one of the main components of cartilage and muscosa layers, forming the connecive tissue that holds muscles, nerves, and blood vessels together. Sodium hyaluronate is another component of protective tissue, including the GAG layer of the bladder, and is essential in the rebuilding process. Extracted from the saphora plant, rutin is a non-acidic natural flavonoid that adds additional anti-inflammatory qualities and liberated quercetin in the intestine, making absorption easier.

CystoProtek is not a cure for IC. At this time, there is no known cure for the condition. Additionally, it is important to understand that CystoProtek is not an analgesic. It may take three to four months to offer a relief of symptoms. In clinical study Cystoprotek was well tolerated by patients ingesting 4-6 softgel capsules per day for 4-6 months.

Summary: no longer have to take anything else for my IC
Comment: Have had IC for 3+ years now. Did bladder infusions and elmiron for 18 months+. Found Cystoprotek - what a difference!! Now I take nothing else at all, and the awful urethral pain and belly tenderness is completely gone. Have been on Cystoprotek for over a year now, absolutely zero side effects for me. This stuff is awesome.

Summary: Try this if you have IC.
Comment: I have had IC for 4 years, and have been taking this product for 4 months. I initially noticed a slight mitigation in IC symptoms that lasted a few hours after taking two Cystoprotek pills, and also noticed GI effects if I took too much of the medication. My body has a resistance to the GI effects now, and I can safely take 10 or 12 pills per day (staggered throughout the day). My IC symptoms have gotten much better, although I am unsure whether the CystoProtek or Elmiron has helped me more (been taking both for the same time period). I recommend that any patient with IC-like symptoms give this a trY and experiment to determine how much you can handle.

Summary: Anita's Cystoprotek Review
Comment: I have been dignosed with Interistitial Cystitis recently, as of January 2008. It is also referred to as painful bladder spasms. I refused the bladder instillations due to intolerance of the procedure related to pain. I was started on Elmiron three times a day. This made my hair fall out and therefore had to decrease the dose to once a day. I heard about Cystoprotek through the IC-Network. I bought it and tried it. Three days later, I started feeling better and by 2 weeks I could hardly tell that I had this awful disease. Thanks Amazon for selling this medicine.

Summary: Cystiorotek helped me
Comment: I have Interstitial Cystitis, and the last time I had a flare-up, I started taking Cystoprotek according to package directions: 2 capsules twice a day. I got over the flare-up, but I'm going to keep on taking the Cystoprotek because I believe it really helped.
