i took two caps just now. just wondering what dose u guys take and when u get relief?

Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :

If you have an infection, take one capsule about every two hours. If it doesn't get better by tomorrow, you may need abx.

The best thing about D-Mannose is its ability to PREVENT infections.

Can D-Mannose be taken while on other meds.....such as doxy?

Can it actually cure a UTI.....or is it only preventative?

Posted by Lymetoo (Member # 743) on :

It can cure it if you take it about every two hours for several days.

I have taken it with just about every med known to mankind.

PS .. It works best as a preventative. That is why I never do without it. I used to get infections far too frequently.

I take one of these twice a day. Once may work, but I'm not taking any chances. The last kidney infection was NOT fun. (That was 7 years ago.)
