Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Urinary tract infections are commonly caused by bacteria such as E. coli, which originate in the gut. Utipro Plus AF works by forming a protective barrier in the intestine, helping to reduce the interaction between bacteria and the intestinal wall. This may limit bacterial proliferation and migration to the urinary tract.
It is important to recognise that this product is intended for uncomplicated UTIs only. If symptoms such as fever, flank pain, or persistent discomfort occur, medical assessment is essential as these may indicate a more serious infection requiring antibiotics.
Hydration plays a key role in urinary health, and patients are encouraged to maintain adequate fluid intake alongside use. For individuals experiencing recurrent UTIs, this product may be used as part of a broader management strategy, including lifestyle measures and medical review.
Always consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist beyond a few days or worsen. This product should be used according to instructions and is not intended to delay appropriate medical treatment when needed.
