Product Reviews of Cystoprotek Soft Gel Capsules, 120-Count Bottle

Product Review: Cystroprotek Caps purchased from Amazon
Summary: 5 Stars

I have IC and this product has definiely helped. I had tried Elmiron which had too many side effects. I had reached the point that I would try anything. It took a couple of months before it kicked in, but I'm so glad I stuck with it. I do wish it was a prescription drug as it's quite expensive, but I'll continue taking it as it's the only medication that's helped my IC with almost no side effects. I purchased it on Amazon as it's cheaper than other sites I've found it on.

Product Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars

Sudden, post-hysterectomy onset of IC. I had no clue what it was. Figured that out and started taking Cystoprotek, Prelief and an aloe supplement. The combo works extremely well. I have started to conclude though that the Cystoprotek is the main ingredient to my solution because the few times I've run out of it... oy... the pain. When I've got it in my system again I can forget all about the IC - even drinking my morning tea.

Product Review: First good night's sleep in over a year
Summary: 5 Stars

I have had interstitial cystitis for over a year. It wakes me up several times each night and prevents me from getting solid rest. I normally look young but dark circles and a general haggard appearance have revealed the toll the interrupted sleep has been taking on my body.

When I finally received the IC, your-guess-is-as-good-as-mine "diagnosis," I wanted to find an alternative remedy rather than take prescribed drugs that were either new and experimental, or that were known to make hair fall out. I ordered Cystoprotek along with Healthy Life Harvest Aloe capsules for IC sufferers and Prelief to help cancel out the acid in my foods.

After two and a half weeks, I am finally sleeping again. Last night I slept nine hours straight! New moms and people with IC will understand what this means to me.

My dosage has been two Cystoprotek twice a day, two or three Prelief tabs with acid-forming meals, and aloe caps three times per day. The final dosage of aloe I save for the middle of the night in case I wake up. (I was happy to miss that dose last night!)

One note of caution on the aloe - the manufacturers don't mention this but some sources recommend against taking aloe vera for more than six weeks at a time. It is believed to have a long-term dampening effect on the sexual system and libido if taken without a break. Unfortunately, I couldn't ascertain how long the break should be.

Finally, I am also avoiding foods known to aggravate IC: cranberry, tomato, citrus, coffee and tea, all of which will give me an extra-bad night, Prelief notwithstanding. I seem to do OK with some others like avocado, though. Perhaps it is individual.

I will update in a month or two. BTW, hats off to Amazon. I ordered this through their subscription program, which knocks %15 off the price and comes with free shipping - nice. But imagine my surprise when the two bottles I ordered arrived THE NEXT DAY. Overnight free shipping? Who ever heard of THAT? Needless to say, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase.
