Cranberry 20 Capsules
Description:
Cranberry 20 Capsules by EMA Pharm is a urinary tract health supplement formulated with concentrated cranberry extract. It is designed as a supportive anti-adhesin agent to help reduce the incidence of recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) by preventing the adhesion and colonization of uropathogenic bacteria, particularly E. coli, on the urinary tract lining. This product is intended as an adjunct to proper medical treatment and antibiotic therapy in uncomplicated UTIs, and as a preventive supplement for individuals prone to frequent or recurrent urinary infections.
Indications:
- Adjunctive support in uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs), including acute cystitis, urethritis, and pyelonephritis, in combination with appropriate antibiotic therapy as prescribed by a physician.
- Helps reduce the recurrence and frequency of urinary tract infections in patients highly susceptible to frequent or recurrent UTIs.
- Supports urinary tract health by inhibiting bacterial adhesion to the uroepithelium.
- May help relieve associated symptoms of uncomplicated UTIs such as burning urination, urinary urgency, and urinary frequency when used alongside standard medical treatment.
Active Ingredients / Key Components:
- Cranberry extract – concentration per capsule is not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).
- Cranberry extract naturally contains proanthocyanidins, hippuric acid, and plant acids such as benzoic, maleic, and quinic acids, which contribute to its anti-adhesin and antibacterial-supportive properties. Exact quantities of these components are not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).
Dosage & Administration / How to Use:
- Unless otherwise directed by a physician, cranberry extract supplements are commonly taken orally with water. The exact recommended dose and frequency for Cranberry 20 Capsules are not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.); follow the product’s package insert or your doctor’s instructions.
- Capsules should generally be swallowed whole with a sufficient amount of water. Do not crush or chew unless advised by a healthcare professional.
- Can usually be taken with or without food; taking with food may help reduce any potential gastric discomfort.
- For use as adjunctive support in acute uncomplicated UTIs, use only under medical supervision and in combination with appropriate antibiotic therapy as prescribed.
- For prevention of recurrent UTIs, duration of use should be determined by a healthcare provider based on individual risk and medical history.
- Do not exceed the recommended dose stated on the product packaging or prescribed by your doctor.
Clinical Benefits:
- Helps prevent bacterial adhesion: Cranberry extract acts as an anti-adhesin agent by irreversibly inhibiting P-fimbriae of E. coli, preventing the bacteria from attaching to the uroepithelium.
- Supports reduction of recurrent UTIs: By minimizing bacterial adherence and colonization, it helps reduce the frequency of recurrent urinary tract infections in susceptible individuals.
- Creates an unfavorable environment for bacterial growth: Plant acids such as benzoic, maleic, quinic, and hippuric acids help acidify the urine and minimize bacterial growth in the urinary tract.
- Adjunct to antibiotic therapy: Provides supportive care when used alongside appropriate antibiotics in uncomplicated UTIs, potentially improving overall urinary tract health.
Warnings & Contraindications:
