Not typically: But if you've tried it a couple of times and noted that it does each time, then that may be a reaction you have. If its relieving pain the pain may be inhibiting your appetite.

Question 2

can i get tested for a uti if i took phenazopyridine hydrochloride? phenaz

Accepted Answer

Yes: This medication can interfere with some testing but not with culture and microscopic exam.  If you have concerns, get checked.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

: No.  Just be aware Azo is a “pain pill” for the bladder, not an antibiotic.  You may feel better but its possible the bladder infection is continuing.  At your age, you should get a test for urinary infection (Many drug stores sell test strips to determine if the infection is ongoing)

: By PDR. net: "it isn't known whether phenazopyridine is excreted in human milk ... it is prudent to avoid phenazopyridine use while breast-feeding, especially with an infant LESS THAN 1 MONTH of AGE or has a glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency." If there is no history of G6PD in your family's medical history, you should not worry much with only one tablet of 99.5 mg phenazopyridine

No: Fenofenadine is in category b. Animal reproduction studies have failed to demonstrate a risk to the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. But the fluorinated quinolones have the potential to create problems with ligaments and tendons and are not recommended for use in pregnancy.
