Excellent advise ,

Just in case the Cranberry Capsules do not work for some, I have found the cranberry juice to be the most effective for me and for my girls. We always seem to get bladder infections if we drink too much fresh juice without watering it down. We also get yeast infections after taking antibiotics, unless we take Acidophilus along with it.

You can find cranberry juice that's just cranberry juice in health food

stores. It is EXTREMELY tart, but I like it mixed with mineral water

(but then you have to drink more.)

You don't mean you take acidophilus with th antibiotic do you? I heard you should take them a couple hours away from each other so they don't cancel each other out.

Is this your understanding?

be well

A UTI put me in the ER and got dx of MS from an

Urologist who suspected history of infections. The

infection causes weakness , loss of balance, urinary

burning, etc. Stress can bring on the infection in

less than hour for me. MS is infamous for UTI. Local

herbalist mixes " bladder tea " --# 1 for a one time

incident, # 2 for low grade, longtime infection. The

tea renders the bladder wall too slippery for germs to

cling to. Local herbalist recommends USNEA (tree

lichen --liquid herbal extract (mushroom flavored

liquor) and Huang Lian Su (little yellow tablets in

little plastic tube in small box--product of China.

Any Asian herb/market probably carries. USNEA from

Herb Pharm, ,Oregon. Otherwise, The Herb

Store. Lincoln City, Oregon has an 800 order line and

ships anywhere. I don't get a discount--prices too

low. Cordial regards, Shirley

You are right Arlene, we take it but not necessarily at the same time.

Also, D-mannose developed by Dr. from Washington University in Tacoma can stop a UTI in its tracks within 2 days usually, even if it has gone into the kidneys. Remarkable product derived from a simple sugar. Best, Kathy

I'm not sure it's the best place but I purchased mine from Solaray and i believe it was around 24.00 a bottle. You could also try Swanson or the Vitamin Shoppe. Best, Kathy
