Urinary Tract Infection
"I am extremely sensitive to antibiotic side effects so avoid them whenever possible. Usually I take D-Mannose for Urinary or vaginal (yeast) infections but I was out of it and needed something NOW.  Doc called in Macrodantin because I cannot tolerate Cipro or most other ABs.  2nd day on pills and so far zero stomach pain or nausea. I have not noticed a reduction in the pain from the UTI yet so hoping by tonight will see relief.  BTW: look up D-mannose.  I have used it for over 10 yrs and it has stopped the UTI&#039;s and yeast infections if I take it as soon as I feel something.  It is a sugar so you can take it every day if needed without any complications.  It works by detaching the bacteria from the body. Buy the powder. 2 tsp/day"
