Treating My Bladder Spasms

Do you experience bladder spasms, discomfort, trouble urinating and/or general pelvic pain after your BCG treatments or even with a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)? 

Bladder spasms and side effects

I have terrible bladder spasms every day and have a prescription for Oxybutynin that I can take up to every four hours. Oxybutynin reduces muscle spasms of the bladder and urinary tract. It helps take the "edge" off all the discomfort but also dries me out. By that, I mean I get a cotton mouth and itchy eyes, which sometimes produces a sore throat - minor inconveniences to help a painful area.

But did you know about AZO? Over the counter urinary relief. They have multiple types available:

• Urinary Pain Relief
• Urinary Pain Relief - Disinfectant
• Urinary Tract Health
• Bladder Control
• and even Urinary Tract Infection Test Strips
• and many  more

Trying over the counter treatment for urinary relief

My daughters encouraged me to try AZO, and I am one happy customer. I take the Urinary Pain Relief, and within 20 minutes, I notice that the spasms are barely noticeable, and my urgency to go subsides. One thing you must be aware of - AZO will turn your urine bright red or orange. This is normal. Be vigilant in cleaning your toilet using AZO because it can stain the porcelain. It is quite a scary experience to look and sees all red, even when you are expecting it, but believe me, it is totally normal.

Helpful during BCG treatments

This stuff is amazing! It helps me so much more. Also, it doesn't dry me out like Oxybutynin. In my case, my spasms get worse the day of BCG and the day after, so that is when I use my Oxybutynin, but the rest of the time, I use AZO.

My experience with AZO has strictly been used during my BCG treatments. Still, AZO can help tremendously if you are getting a Urinary Tract Infection and can help with the pain. AZO is NOT a replacement for antibiotics to rid yourself of the infection. It is just another tool we can keep in our arsenal while we fight this beast we call cancer.

I am not a physician, and this is not to be substituted as treatment until you speak to your doctor - this is just my personal experience!
