Article Synopsis
- Moderate to severe interstitial cystitis (bladder pain syndrome) currently lacks effective long-term treatments, with pentosan polysulfate having limitations and potential side effects.
- A study involving 12 women aged 39-76 tested BPC-157, an unapproved peptide, via bladder injections to evaluate its safety and efficacy for interstitial cystitis.
- Results showed that 10 out of 12 patients experienced complete symptom resolution after one injection, while the remaining 2 reported significant improvement, marking the first positive report on BPC-157 for this condition.
