For Dysuria "I was prescribed this phenazopyridine by my doctor, and I hated the way it made me feel. It made me feel nauseous and caused abdominal pain. I thought my symptoms were worsening, but I noticed that once I took a dose, I would start to feel terrible. I stopped taking it on the second day and started to feel better."

For Dysuria "I was given this medication after a procedure for kidney stones. It was given to me in recovery with no way to research it. It is in a family of drugs I am allergic to. It caused severe abdominal pain, dizziness, confusion, headaches, and vomiting. It contains Red 40, which is being studied for toxicity. Also, as of Sept 2022, this drug is not FDA-approved. Research this drug before taking it! It made me extremely ill."

Phenazopyridine for Dysuria "I went to the store as soon as I had discomfort and saw that these were a higher dosage, so I bought them. The first time, it helped a little. I've been taking them three times a day for a couple of days, and all they've done is change the color of my pee and possibly caused excruciating lower back pain, as well as abdominal pain."
