A member asked:
Can a uti be treated with pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Most urinary tract infections (UTI) are treated with a course of antibiotics, which come as pills. A pill called Pyridium (phenazopyridine) can help with symptoms of bladder irritation. Some advocate cranberry pills to prevent uti, but these do not treat the infection. Complicated or severe infections of the kidney may require intravenous antibiotics.
