Pain After Urodynamic Testing
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of the study is to determine if taking phenazopyridine (AZO) at the time of urodynamic study testing will decrease pain experienced by patients after undergoing urodynamic testing.
Interventions
Experimental arm to take two 99.5 mg phenazopyridine hydrochloride by mouth for a total of 199mg immediately prior to start of urodynamic testing
