For Bladder Infection "I was prescribed Hiprex for painful bladder syndrome to stop recurring infections. My bladder was already sensitive to certain foods. Within hours of taking this drug, I was in agony. Burning to pee, difficulty peeing, and terrible back pain. I stopped taking the drug after 2 half doses. A week later, my symptoms are still twice as bad as before taking the drug."

For Bladder Infection "I have had a urinary tract infection for 18 months. I had all the usual antibiotics, but they didn’t work. I researched Hiprex, and my GP agreed to let me try it. The only side effect I had was painful urination, which has now stopped. If I stop the Hiprex, the infection returns. I don’t know where this will end. I also take 1 g of Trimethoprim at night, but it is now not available because of Brexit. I live in N. Ireland and have no problems getting the prescription, so I don’t understand why it’s not available. I also take Waterfall D-mannose 2 daily on the advice of my urologist."

For Urinary Tract Infection "Hiprex with Vit C 500 mg twice a day for recurrent UTI prevention. I was on Macrodantin 50 mg for 4 months and got a UTI recently. My Dr. at Northwestern Univ. wanted me to try Hiprex. As soon as I took the first pill, I felt the burning through my stomach and bladder. It gave me diarrhea, painful urination, nausea, back pain, vaginal burning, and my bladder started leaking. Tried with Pyridium for 2 days, a little better, but once the Pyridium stops working, this is killing me. I did 6 days, and I'm done. Sucks for me!"
