since IC is getting more well known now the labels on medicine should read IC safe or not safe for ic.

Antihistamines have helped alot with my IC symptoms. Zyrtec worked well for me for about 5 years. But then it stopped. I could tell because I was not only peeing more, I also got hives. I tried Clarinex and it helped but my insurance wouldn't cover it. Claritin did not help me.
Antihistamines are a non-invasive, simple treatment for IC. You try one and if it doesn't work you to another. Different ones work for different people. Many doctors have samples.
