For Urinary Tract Infection "It worked and did its job in stopping my UTI pretty quickly, but at the same time, I was subjected to some of the worst side effects I've ever had. I was having terrible constipation and bloating, and I couldn't sleep some nights from the pounding headaches and nausea. To add insult to injury, on the last day of taking it, I had a delayed allergic reaction to sulfa. This stuff was worse than my actual UTI. Please ask for any other antibiotic."

For Urinary Tract Infection "It didn't work, it gave me a cold, headaches, a severe cough, and a yeast infection. It's day 7 of 10, and I have no relief. I do not recommend this. Maybe it just doesn't work for me, I don't know. I don't think I'd ever use it again."
