    What is Cystopurin and what is it used for?

    Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder, which causes pain, discomfort and unpleasant burning sensation when passing urine.

    Cystopurin cystitis relief sachets contains granules that dissolve when mixed with water and you should stir the granules until dissolved. Does cystopurin cure cystitis? It treats the symptoms of cystitis in women, which may be caused by a bacterial infection. Cystopurin contains potassium citrate which makes the urine less acidic and helps reduce the stinging and burning sensation.

    This treatment differs from other cystitis sachets as it is low in sodium.

    How do I take Cystopurin?

    Cystopurin sachets are for use by children and adults aged 6 years and over

    Dissolve the contents of the sachet in a glass of cold water (about 200ml) and drink immediately. One sachet should be taken three times a day. This is a 2-day course of treatment and you should take all six sachets to complete the treatment.

    Do not exceed the stated dose. If symptoms persist or worsen after the 2-day course is completed, consult your doctor or pharmacist. Do not repeat the treatment without medical advice.

    What else can I do to help relieve symptoms of cystitis?
