Azo: Usually gets rid of the symptoms but many uti's in women clear by just drinking fluids.

Prevention.: It helps to prevent UTI's but usually doesn't cure them. Unsweetened cranberry juice can decrease bacteria adhering to urinary tract. Beneficial supplements: cranberry or garlic extracts, bearberry leaf & D-Mannose. Probiotics can help. REF: https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/uti-home-remedies#section5
