Abstract
The management of noninfectious cystitis continues to evolve as new treatments continue to be developed and investigated. This review aims to synthesize the most recent data regarding management strategies for noninfectious cystitis focused on non-ulcerative, ulcerative, eosinophilic, and ketamine-induced cystitis. Several novel treatments have shown promise as management options including combination antihistamine therapy, phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors, alpha lipoic acid supplements, and onabotulinumtoxin A. Recent studies have also found pentosan polysulfate sodium to have adverse ophthalmologic effects. For patients with ulcerative cystitis, recent research has shown that fulguration with or without triamcinolone injections should not be delayed. The treatment of noninfectious cystitis should be patient specific based on factors including etiology and symptom profile. Multimodal regimens are often the most effective. Treatment should be started with conservative options and escalated as necessary to oral treatments, intravesical options, or procedural management.
