Elmiron Coupon & Discounts

How do I take Elmiron?

The Elmiron drug comes as an oral capsule and is usually taken three times a day. It is typically best to take it at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals. However, keep in mind that these are just general guidelines: follow your health care provider’s instructions if he or she puts you on a different dosage schedule.

What if I forget to take a dose of Elmiron?

Never double your dosage to make up for a missed dose. If you remember the missed dose when there is a significant amount of time before your next dose, it is okay to take it. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your normal dosage schedule.

What happens if I overdose on Elmiron?

Overdosing on Elmiron is very serious and can cause nausea, vomiting, and unusual bleeding or bruising. If you or anyone in your household has overdosed on this drug, call your local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222 immediately.

Before taking Elmiron, tell your doctor if:

• You are allergic to the Elmiron drug, heparin, or low molecular weight heparin

• You have any other known allergies

• You are using any other prescription or non-prescription medications, especially blood thinners

• You have a history of bleeding disorders or blood vessel disorders

• You have a history of liver disease

• You have ever had a spleen, stomach, or intestinal disorder

• You are breastfeeding, pregnant, or may become pregnant

What are the possible side effects of taking Elmiron?

While most people who take Elmiron do not experience any serious side effects, some people have reported abdominal pain, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhea, headache, and limited hair loss. In some even more rare cases, patients have reported unusual mood swings, blood in stool, discomfort when swallowing, and heartburn. Tell your doctor if you experience any of these uncommon symptoms. In the unlikely event that you experience signs of infection, a fast heartbeat, difficulty breathing, vision changes, eye pain, persistent nausea and vomiting, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin and eyes, seek medical attention immediately.

How do I store Elmiron?

Keep the Elmiron drug in a tightly sealed container at room temperature (between 59-86 degrees Fahrenheit). Avoid storing it in the bathroom, as it should be kept away from bright light and moisture. Always store your prescription medications out of reach of children and pets.

Warnings

Because Elmiron is a weak blood thinner, it may increase bleeding. Before taking this medication, let your doctor know if you are scheduled to undergo surgery or if you are taking any other blood thinners. You should also avoid taking high doses of anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and aspirin, while using this medication.
