    Default D mannose-how long do you give it?

    so i tried replying to the last thread made about it but got no responses because for some weird reason it was in camming connection instead of body business..
    got my 3rd uti/bladder infection this year, and i've been taking D mannose for almost 48 hours now..like taking heaping spoonfuls every 2 hours with lots of water. how long should i wait to see if it works before having to take antibiotics?? saturday night when i started it, it was the absolute worst..i've never had it hurt so bad in my life i wanted to kill myself. then last night ( sunday night) i slept ok.. thought it was getting better and working..this morning its still uncomfortable and noticeable. so tonight it will have been 48 hours. I'm concerned because you aren't supposed to take AZO for longer than 2 days, but i still need it to function.
    so how long did it take for it to work?? haven't found anything particularly helpful online. i wanna tear my hair out lol

    Hi Simone, keep taking the d-mannose until your symptoms subside. You keep taking it until you feel better and then keep it up for 5 consecutive days after. The dose should be every 2-4 hours. If you see that you are not getting relief AT ALL, then go to the doctor immediately.

    To maintain, take it daily.

    Make sure the D-mannose you have is relatively fresh. It loses it's effectiveness the closer it is to its expiry date.

    The Now brand or the Swanson brand are the best. If you are in Canada the AOR brand is great.

    You may get diarrhea if you take more than you need, if you experience diarrhea just take a little less or less often.

    Also, this wasn't put into the Body Business section because I am a cam model and not a stripper. I find that I am not welcome in many of the stripper threads.

    Chronic UTI sufferer here. I take it daily. when I do get UTI's, I normally take a double dose every hour for 3 hours and it clears up. Just cranberry juice (the stuff that's like $8 in a glass bottle and tart as hell) helps a lot too. I try to drink an entire bottle during the 3 hours along with a crap load of water. Also, azo is just a numbing agent. it doesn't cure the UTI. Cut out any sugar & refined flour from your diet for a couple days as well. limit your salt intake as well. Sugar is the absolute worse thing you can have when you have a UTI or bladder infection.

    stay hydrated! If you start getting lower back pain, go to the dr IMMEDIATELY! it means it has spread to your kidneys which is awful to deal with.

    If it helps I would take the Azo pain pills for way longer than 2 days(like 3-6 days I'm sure) even though you're not supposed to and never had any issues.

    You may want to fact check me, but I think Cystex won't interfere with tests if you want to go to a Dr. And you won't have to deal with your piss potentially staining your underwear bright orange.

    Unfilitered Apple Cider Vinegar "with the mother" I recommend Braggs brand. You can find it at almost every grocery store. It's the ONLY thing that I've tried before taking antibiotics that has consistently cured my UTI's, and I have been a chronic UTI sufferer since birth. Drink it every hour for the first day or two if it's a severe UTI and then go down to 3x a day for a week or two. I drink it once a day for maintenance and haven't had a recurring UTI since I started doing that. 1-2tsbp is all you need and I mix it with water, honey and a little bit of lemon to help with the taste. You can also add some of the cranberry juice in there to help cut the taste even more.

    thank you guys. once again, after thinking it was getting way better, i woke up to today in absolute agony. spent 5 hours in the bathroom, the pressure on my bladder was too intense. i'm gonna have to break down and get antibiotics, the pain is starting to radiate and i dont want a kidney infection. the AZO is taking hours and hours to kick in, or not touching the pain at all at this point
    im guessing what's causing this one isn't E coli, or the D mannose would have taken care of it. i bought another bottle though, and I'm taking it a preventative measure!! i still think its an awesome find

    I take it after sex sex can trigger a uti for me

    I take it three to five days I see improvement immediately. But to be super safe until your urine is clear not cloudy

    I took it three weeks one time went to the doc and had an extremely mild infection I didn't take the antibiotics went a week later it was gone

    Don't play with those they can go to your kidney if your having signs get treated
    I was just having cloud turbine mine was slight if your at the level of pain take an antibiotic
