Product Description
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. |
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.

Because of the nature of IC where it comes and goes, it’s sometimes hard to tell if something is working or not – but I definitely am better when I’m taking this. I have not taken it consistently, so I think I might get even better if I took it over a long period of time. It is definitely worth adding to your arsenal of natural remedies for IC. I took Elmiron for years with no real improvement – but I noticed an improvement right away with this product. Also, the price on this website is very good.

I almost can’t believe it’s true, but it has to be! I know they say it won’t start working for about a month but I do declare it started working almost immediately. I started with the suggested dose but have been able to take only one a day for the past week or so. I’m still having trouble urinating sometimes but it’s so much better than it was and the PAIN IS GONE~!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Great Product! I have used this for years, and it beats any over-the-counter medication that I have tried!

Hi, I tried Cystoprotek after reading about it on the interstitial cystitis network. I have used it for several months and I feel better!

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.

I tell you when I went to the Dr and he told me I had this IC condition and told me that I would have to take this for the rest of my life I was a little sceptical on whether it would do anything for my condtion that I have suffered with for so long, well it was like a miracle, after about a week of taking this, I actually slept for about 5 hours before I had to get up at night…this was the first time in I don’t know how long I have been about to sleep formore than and hour at a time! And the pain in my bladder had subsided also! GREAT STUFF!

I have suffered from IC for over 9 years. Medical doctors seem to be mystified by it and have been sympathetic but not very helpful… prescribing antibiotics and Elmiron (awful stuff!). I’ve gone thru several MD’s to several Holistic Drs with little relief. Changing my diet and limiting alcohol helped somewhat but I was subject to flareups at anytime. Read about Cystoprotek in a newsletter by Dr. Susan Lark. Tracked it down on the internet to Amazon. The results have been like a gift from the heavens. Pain has stopped and I feel like a normal person again. We are not all the same and it may not work like this for you, but for me it did. I also take 1 Glucosamine/Condroitin/MSM pill in the am & pm as well as drops in the pm that promote alkalizing the blood. But not much changed until I tried the Cystoprotek.

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.

I have IC and I have tried everything and I decided to try this instead of the prescribed medicine Elmiron. I could tell a difference within a couple of weeks. I will say, that it makes you go to the bathroom alot for an hour after taking it and then after you are fine, so I would not suggest before bed or before leaving for a trip. I am really impressed and the difference in taking this and the prescribed medicine is that it repairs the problem instead of masking it. I will continue to buy this product.

I’ve been using it for years and have managed to stay off all the IC meds. I do feel it if I miss a couple doses though!
