Cystitis associated with tiaprofenic acid.
Ten patients with cystitis associated with tiaprofenic acid were reviewed. All patients displayed similar cystoscopic and histological features, and all failed a variety of initial therapies but achieved a dramatic improvement or resolution of symptoms with discontinuation of the tiaprofenic acid. Drug-induced cystitis may be more common than previously recognized.
