Hi,
Here is link to the antispasmodics/anesthetics forum. Many us use one of these types of meds for spasms and/or other UTI-like symptoms that IC can cause.

Some examples are:
Pyridium
Pyridum Plus
OTC Uristat or AZO Standard (same as Pyridium but just a bit lower dose)
Urelle
Prosed DS
Utira-C
UTA (Urinary Tract Antiseptic)
Hyoscyamine

Anyway take a look at this link and you can read up on some threads/posts about these meds... http://www.ic-network.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=194
Hope this helps and that you feel better soon!

Sometimes one of the smooth muscle antispasmodics, such as hyoscyamine, will help more than anything with spasms. There are many of these on the market now.
