"It did alleviate my pain but not my urgency. The side effect is just about unbearable. I am partially incontinent due to the cancer treatment I am receiving. Just a drop of this bright orange dye on clothing, carpet or anywhere does permanent damage. Everyone gets a urine spot in their underwear occasionally. With this product get ready to spend lots on cleaning and ruined clothes."

"I went to restroom at work felt some discomfort of pain at the end of urination, omg haven't had bladder infection in over twenty years, seemed like each time the I go, the pain was getting worse so I was thinking I better get to clinic tomorrow. I did a fast stop at Walgreens got pills for bladder pain and cranberry juice I just went urine gold hope it helps, but I'm headed to clinic when I awake, so I'll let u know what happens first urination in morning if pills helped or not, reviews say it does, so we will see"

Uricalm (phenazopyridine) "Within 12 hrs I went from having a little pain at the tail end of urinating to full on feeling like I have to pee 24/7 and intense pain when urinating - with blood. So I did a telehealth visit so I could get antibiotics ASAP. When I went to pick up my antibiotics I also picked up uricalm. I thought it would help with symptoms. It didn’t help at all. I've waited 45 min and nothing but neon pee"

Uricalm (phenazopyridine) "Just don't mistake Uricalm Intensive for Uricalm! I grabbed the box in a rush and when I got home phenazopyridine the ingredient that stops the burning and pain is not in the Intensive. "
