Multimodal management (diet modification, pelvic floor PT, bladder training) complements drug therapy.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Cystopen addictive?<\/h3>\n<p>No. No dependence or withdrawal concerns.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I take Cystopen long-term?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes if responding, but with periodic retinal monitoring.

Same dosing and considerations.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if I have hair loss on Cystopen?<\/h3>\n<p>Alopecia is a recognised class effect (~5% of users).
