A member asked:
Is it possible to treat a bladder infection with something other than antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: First you have to confirm you have bladder infection by doing urine culture. Secondly the infections in bladder need antibiotics to kill bacteria or local antiseptics like old drug like Mandelic acid which may not be available. Hence answer is no! The cranberry juice etc. my relieve your symptoms but not get rid of infection.
