WHAT HARM IS ASSOCIATED WITH ELMIRON

More than one million people in the United States suffer interstitial cystitis, and Elmiron is the only oral medication approved by the FDA as a treatment for the painful condition. Unfortunately, since its approval in 1997, hundreds of thousands of patients may have been treated with Elmiron and are potentially at risk of severe eye damage and even vision loss.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF MACULOPATHY?

Symptoms of Maculopathy associated with Elmiron include:

Unfortunately, the side effects of Elmiron are still being studied, but research suggest that vision damage caused by Elmiron, may continue to progress even after the medication has been stopped.

HOW DOES ELMIRON POTENTIALLY CAUSE RETINAL DAMAGE?

Research has associated long-term use of the medication with maculopathy, macular degeneration, and blindness. And even worse, because Elmiron is the only FDA approved drug for IC, patients are often treated with the medication for years. Studies have associated long-term use of Elmiron with a significantly higher risk of maculopathy, or damage to the macula, the area of the eye that handles clarity, detail, and accurate vision.
