A member asked:
Can cranberry juice help stop a kidney or bladder infection until you get to the doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: Drink water, about 64 ozs a day to keep high urine flow rates. Cranberry juice purportedly helps but this has not been shown to be superior to antibiotics in medical studies.
