Elmiron Lawsuit

Elmiron is utilized to treat a condition known as interstitial cystitis, better known as “painful bladder syndrome.” It is also prescribed for osteoarthritis in humans as well as elderly dogs and horses.

But it is unrealistic to just disregard a wrong accident report because insurance companies will throw them in...
