Glad to know about the pill for a urinary tract infection. I love the information that this website provides. Especially for women's gynecological issues such as breast information.

I used cranberry juice yesterday and it really worked. However, the regular juice contains 27 % juice while the diet drink contains a mere 7 percent. I also contacted my doctor because he feels that urinary tract infections should be treated with an antibiotic.

It is great to hear that it is true that cranberry juice does prevent Urinary Tract Infections. I always drank the juice but I am glad to know that there is a pill that can help. Also, I like the idea of zero calories. I will go to my health food store today.
