Cranberry juice does not really do alot believe me.I have on going water infections,i was told to drink 3 glasses aday by my gp,when i got referred to the urology dept and saw the consultant he said that cranberry juice does not really do nothing at all just drink plenty off water to flush it all through.I have been drinking cranberry for 2 years now and i still have problems.You need to see your gp and see if he will put you on a course of anti-biotics this will treat the infection.If you still have on going problems he should refer you.Good Luck

Drink cranberry juice or take cranberry supplements (you can find them with the vitamins).\n\nIf you want the cranberry juice, it can be any flavor (like cran-apple or cran-raspberry).  I usually buy 64 oz and drink it in one day.

It depends on your body mass index. The more fat that you have on you, the longer you will hold onto it. But the general rule of thumb is thirty days.If you need a way to get it out of your system faster, take a lot of Niacin, and drinks TONS of water. Cranberry juice works, too. If you have to take a piss test, drink water, pee. drink water, pee about four times. Don't try bleach, or anything STUPID like that. Just do it naturally. Sometimes GNC sells cleansers.

If it's a urine test your straight.  You can do one of two things.  1. Go to a G.N.C. (a nutrition store) ask an employee for flushers.  They are a little pricey about $30 bucks.  Make sure you read the directions before you drink it.  You have to drink it a few hours before the test and it blocks the THC some how.  2. You can keep your money and hope that the test you take is not to sophisticated.  You have to drink alot of water, like a gallon or more, right before the test like 2-3 hours.  When you take the test, your urine will be diluted and the test will only pick up water.  Hopefully, it won't know it's just water, and not urine.  I had a friend who did this to pass a test for the Army, and it worked.  If they take blood, hair, or do a saliva test, your screwed. And don't try drinking vinegar, or cranberry juice or any other goofy drinks.  Only water and flushers actually work. I read someone's answer that said to drink bleach.  Not a good idea you can do serious internal damage doing so. Drinking water does not clean you out, it only dilutes the urine so such a small amount if any of THC doesn't show up on the test. I tried Niacin once to pass atest and broke out in a severe case of hives.  If you've never had hives, trust me, you'd be better off failing the test. It's like pure hell, very painful.Trust me, water or flushers.  They WORK!  Good Luck bro

Sounds like a urinary tract infection. Drink lots of water and cranberry juice.

Lots of cranberry juice, water, eat blueberries (actually better for a UTI than cranberries).  \n\nSeriously though, you need an antibiotic.  AZO is meant as temporary relief until you can get to a doctor.  If left untreated, you could cause severe damage to yourself.

There is no maximum number of times you can get a bladder infection. Some people are more prone to them then others. They say to wipe from front to back when you are done going to the restroom. If you like cranberry juice, drink that even when you don't have a bladder infection. It will fight off the infection before you get the symptoms:)

Women get UTIs much more frequently than men because our urinary orifice is so much closer to our bladder. Infective agents have an extra few inches to travel to reach a male bladder due to anatomical differences. If you have frequent UTI's there are a few things you can that reduce that frequency.\n\nYou and your male partner should both wash well before sex, preferably a shower. Use hot water and soap on the entire 'boxer area' -- buttocks, belly, and upper thighs -- and not just the crotch.\n\nYou and your partner give your hands a good scrubbing before sex, including under your fingernails. Dry your hands on a freshly laundered towel or a paper towel.\n\nAfter sex, urinate as "hard" as you can to "wash out" any microbes that have gotten into your urinary orifice. Then wash your boxer area again with soap and hot water.\n\nDrink cranberry juice or take cranberry extract capsules every day. The superficially expensive health food store quarts of pure cranberry really give more bang for the buck. Four ounces mixed with a quart of apple juice, orange juice, lemonade, etc will give you 9 servings of 4 ounces each, with almost 0.5 ounces of pure cranberry per serving. (You can also add some prune juice to your daily cocktail, but that is for a different problems.)\n\nDrink plenty of pure water, at least 1/2 a gallon a day. Coffee, soda, etc don't count toward this goal. Distilled water will do you the most good, but some people find the "flat" taste objectionable. Don't put lemon to cover the taste; then it's not water anymore, it's lemonade.\n\nKeep your immune system strong with regular hours, plenty of rest, and 5 daily servings of fresh fruits and vegetables. This is easier than it sounds, as a large apple or a large cucumber would be two servings, a 'meal size' salad would be 3 servings or maybe 4.

Definitely a UTI!  You need to get to the Dr. asap.  Until then go get some cranberry supplement pills and take six of them at a time 3 or 4 times a day.  and drink boat loads of water!  Just make sure you treat it becasue it can spread to your kidneys pretty fast and that can kill ya!  If you start having pain in your lower back, go to the ER.

Go to the store and get cranberry pills, they're at like Vitamin World and grocery stores and drug stores in with the herbal supplements. \nCranberry Juice and plenty of water. Do not drink anything with caffiene or carbonation for a week after the infection is gone. \nI took the cranberry pills for a week, I took two pills four times a day with Advil for the pain it began clearing it up the first day, no joke. I stopped drinking anything with caffiene or carbonation and just concentrated on cleaning out my system. I felt good enough to work in the warehouse again the next day. I just kept taking the cranberry pills and drinking the water and cranberry juice and I felt totally normal by the end of the third day. \nI got a large bottle of the cranberry pills for $16.00 and it saved me the small fortune I'd have spent for the office visit at the doctors and the prescription for antibiotics. The doctor gave me a prescription for an antibiotic that was supposed to work super good. The cost for the prescription alone was 82.00 for 5 frickin pills. You take two the first day and then one a day for the next three days. It was a load of crap I used the prescription and it didn't do a thing except break my bank account. It didn't even work. So I drank alot of cranberry juice and water and it cleared up real fast. \nThe next time I got a UTI I bought the cranberry pills because they're concentrated and drank cranberry juice and water and the relief begins real soon after you start taking it. I don't get UTI's often but I think that was the worst one I've ever had in my life and I haven't had one since.\nHope your wife feels better soon.

There is a compound in cranberry juice called Tannin which helps prevent the bacteria that causes bladder infections from clinging to the walls of the bladder.  Cranberry juice is actually more effective for the prevention of bladder infections since it doesn't actually kill the bacteria.  Your best bet to treat a bladder infection is to flush your system with water and to use cranberry juice as a preventative measure.

the best thing to do is to drink a glass of cranberry juice as it lines ur inside and helps maintain a healthy equilibrium.  Also where possible urinate after making love as it promotes a neutral ph urinary tract.

I gave my husband a "Gallbladder Flush" a couple of months ago...and he has not had another attack since....\nYou need 1 liter of pure virgin olive oil, lemon juice, V-8 or pineapple juice.\n\nWhat to do:  Fast for at least 12-24 hours before the flush,( also it is best to do the flush when you don't have anywhere to be for a couple of days.)  Drink 1/4 cup of olive oil followed by 2 Tbs. of lemon juice.  Do that every 15 minutes until all the olive oil is gone.  If you feel sick at your stomach, drink a very small amount of V-8 or Pineapple juice, then continue as soon as you can.  When it is all gone, just lay down on your right side and just wait.  He had results in about 3 hours, but sometimes can take longer.\nHe had to go to the bathroom alot, and felt bad at the time, but he did pass alot of bile and gallstones.  His doctor said it was perfectly safe to do this, and he had not had any problems since.\nGood Luck
