Farr Laboratories earned its place in the community by being the first to develop a supplement to help control and reduce bladder symptoms. Based upon quercetin, a bioflavonoid proven to have anti-inflammatory properties in the bladder, CystaQ, ProstaQ and Q-Urol are worth considering, particularly for patients who are unable to use more complex supplements due to fish or egg allergies. Dr. Dan Shoskes has contributed the two lectures on the research supporting these products below:

• "A Glimpse at Quercetin"
• "The Use of Quercetin and CystaQ in Treating IC"
