Is There A Cheaper Alternative For Elmiron Medication?

I was just diagnosed with interstitial cystitis. I was given a prescription for Elmiron and cannot afford it. With my insurance it will still cost me $175/mo. Is there anything else I can take for this problem. I have been in severe pain for months and given lots of different kinds of antibiotics and pain meds. None of them have helped. I am on a fixed income and cannot afford the medication that was prescribed today.

Hi,
Thanks for your question. I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. Please find my advice below-:
1)Take CYSTOPEN capsules which is manufactured by indian company Ranbaxy and price is INR 500 for 10 caps and if you buy more than one sprip at a time you will get 30% less.Try to buy directly from (NETMED)

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me.
Wishing you all the best.
