Phenazopyridine

Phenazopyridine is also known as pyridium. In the United States of America (USA), this drug was previously marked by Roche but has been discontinued by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is still used in other parts of the world. Phenazopyridine hydrochloride is indicated to relieve uncomfortable symptoms that occur as a consequence of mucosal irritation of the lower urinary tract in adults. The irritation may be a result of trauma, surgery, endoscopic procedures, infection, or the insertion of instruments or urinary catheters. Phenazopyridine may be used in combination with antimicrobial therapy but is not used as an antimicrobial agent. It contributes to the relief of discomfort and pain before antimicrobial therapy begins to take effect. It is important to note that the duration of treatment with this drug should last a maximum of 2 days. Phenazopyridine is available in many countries as an over-the-counter drug.
