I had what felt like a bladder infection i took the azo pills and drank lots of water the burning went away still have pressure on bladder though???

Need antibiotic: Urinary infections are typically bacterial, and AZO and fluids alone will not rid you of the bacterium. You may need antibiotics. Visit your doctor.

SEE DOCTOR: Azo does not treat infections, Antibiotics do! If you still have pressure, you still have an infection. The only reason to take Azo is for short term relief until you can see a health care provider, or until the antibiotic you are taking starts working. Too many patients take Azo and end up with Kidney infections and serious Sepsis because they think Azo will cure the UTI - IT DOESN'T!

Here are some ...: Most UTIs are uncomplicated; so, past experience alerts one to know the UTI is coming so to timely initiate self-care, such as taking Azo, which just eases UTI-related irritating voiding symptoms but may masquerade the underlying causes for complicated UTI. Hence, at least once, have Doc help you how to plan long-term care or investigate potential underlying causes for recurrent UTIs.
