For Bladder Infection "If I had read all the stuff on here before taking it, I probably never would have, I’m so glad I did not. Amazing!! No side effects. The only thing I would suggest is get a culture done first. Not just the dip stick test. I show up negative every time with the dip stick test, but positive with culture. Plus a culture will let you know what antibiotics your uti is sensitive to. Also try D-mannose and lots of water. Just flush that nastiness out!! This is my go to, but everyone is different. We need to get the vaccine here in America"

Monurol (fosfomycin) for Bladder Infection "Took single dose and urine smelt less foul and I think I am free of infection but not diarrhoea I’m afraid. Very urgent motions nearly every time I pass urine. Hope it doesn’t last more than a week."

Monurol (fosfomycin) for Transurethral Prostatectomy "After decades of suffering with recurrent bouts of prostatitis with little to no relief from the standard antibiotics, I finally tried monurol. Such a difference! After a few courses, my problem was completely eliminated, and has not returned in about 15 years."

For Bladder Infection "This is the only drug left that will stop my recurrent UTI’s. I have grown immune or have side effects from all other drugs used to treat this condition. It has a pleasant orange taste (reminds me of Tang) and dissolves easily in water. The only problem I have with it is that because you take it every other day for three days, it’s hard to remember to take it unless you write the days down that you need to take it."

For Bladder Infection "This was a game changer for me. Almost every antibiotic came with a slew of side effects, almost as bad as the UTI itself - from anxiety to nausea. After recurrent, repeat infections, it started to seem hopeless. That’s when my doctor suggested I drink this little packet, and within a matter of hours I felt immense relief! My doctor ordered me a small supply to keep on hand in case I feel one coming on; I can instantly treat it! So easy and doesn’t taste gross! And I haven’t noticed a single side effect, which is rare for me!"
