Elmiron, chemically known as pentosan polysulfate sodium, is a medication primarily prescribed to alleviate the discomfort associated with interstitial cystitis (IC), a chronic bladder condition often referred to as bladder pain syndrome. This drug is tasked with providing relief from the persistent and often debilitating bladder pain, urinary frequency, and urgency that accompany IC, as well as pain during sexual intercourse. However, recent developments have cast a shadow over Elmiron’s safety profile. Individuals who have been prescribed Elmiron and subsequently suffered from eye diseases, particularly a rare condition known as pigmentary maculopathy, are initiating legal actions against the manufacturers.
