A member asked:

What are the consequences of long term use of pyridium (phenazopyridine)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pyridium (phenazopyridine): Pyridium (phenazopyridine) is a urinary tract analgesic (numbs the tract). The long term consequences (if you can call it that) is that you are not getting to the underlying diagnosis as to what is causing the problem. Go see your family doctor.
