Comment:
It took the pain away, but I have a weak stomach, so I sometimes felt nausea when taking it even with food. Also, my left side of my upper back hurts, so I am wondering if it is a side effect on my kidney.

I have suffered with chronic bladder pain for yrs. Have had several hydradilations. Never given this before. I was diagnosed with a UTI and my Dr. gave me this drug along with anti-biotics. I wish I could take it everyday.

Comment:
I used this drug last year with UTI and it was great. It really relieved the burning,and feeling of having to "go".
But, I just used it again for the same reason and my heart has been racing.
So I got on this web site to see if any problems with others. Well many of you have the same problem, it's in the trash right now.

Haven't had side effects with pyridium. The first few times I took it, I did not think it did anything. For the particularly difficult UTI, it has been a life saver!

i have had 2 UTI's inthe last month. The first antibiotic was leviquin. The second was sulpha. Pyridium was used in conjunction with both. Both time s I had a 3 day migraine headache- it has to be the pyridium. Never again.
