There is no doubt that alcohol can trigger bladder symptoms in patients with IC. Ninety-four percent of 535 patients responding to the ICN’s IC and Alcohol survey (2009/2010) reported that their frequency, urgency or pelvic pain did increase when drinking various alcoholic beverages but there was a substantial difference in the types of alcohols consumed and the reactions they provoked.
