About Cystopen Capsule

Cystopen Capsule is used to provide relief from bladder pain and discomfort associated with intestinal cystitis. Intestinal cystitis is a disease that causes scarring and swelling of the bladder wall. It is a painful bladder syndrome with bladder pressure, bladder pain, and pelvic pain.
 
Cystopen Capsule contains Pentosan polysulfate, which works by preventing irritation of the bladder walls by binding to the mucosal membrane of the intestine.
