Fast-acting relief for urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Cystitis is a common type of urinary tract infection (UTI) that primarily affects women. Around half of all women experience cystitis at least once in their lifetime. The infection occurs when bacteria enter the urethra and reach the bladder, where they multiply and cause irritation.
Typical symptoms include:
· Pain or burning during urination
· Needing to urinate more often than usual
· Lower abdominal discomfort
· Cloudy, dark, or strong-smelling urine
Although cystitis is often mild and short-lived, it can cause significant discomfort. Increasing your water intake and taking appropriate clinically proven treatments can help flush out bacteria and relieve symptoms quickly.
At ifeelshy®, we offer a range of MHRA-approved prescription treatments for cystitis, including Nitrofurantoin and Trimethoprim, both proven to treat bacterial urinary tract infections effectively and safely.
Cystitis usually occurs when bacteria from the bowel (often E. coli) enter the urinary tract through the urethra and infect the bladder.
Symptoms include pain or burning when urinating, frequent urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and lower abdominal pain.
Mild cases can clear up naturally by drinking plenty of fluids, but antibiotics such as Nitrofurantoin or Trimethoprim may be prescribed for bacterial infections.
Symptoms typically begin to improve within 1–2 days of starting treatment, though it’s important to complete the full course prescribed.
Yes — drink plenty of water, urinate after sexual activity, wipe front to back, and avoid perfumed soaps or bubble baths.
If symptoms persist for more than 3 days, recur frequently, or you have fever, back pain, or blood in your urine, seek medical advice promptly.
