13 November 2019 - NICE has recommended Consilient Health’s Elmiron (pentosan polysulfate sodium) for bladder pain syndrome.
The company “welcomed” the decision, saying that the organisation has approved the medicine, usually used in BPS with glomerulations or Hunner’s lesions, is used in accordance with specified considerations.
The drug in question works by passing into the urine and attaches to the lining of the bladder, helping to form a protective layer.
