Can I take this product if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?
Care Cystitis sachets are not suitable for use in those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you have cystitis or a UTI at these times, you should speak to your doctor or pharmacist and ask them to recommend a more suitable treatment for you.
What is Cystitis
Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder resulting in an urgent and frequent need to urinate and pain or stinging when you urinate. This medicine provides relief by making the urine less acidic.
It’s a common type of urinary tract infection (UTI), particularly in women, and is usually more of a nuisance than a cause for serious concern.
Mild cases will often get better by themselves within a few days.
But some people experience episodes of cystitis frequently and may need regular or long-term treatment.
There’s also a chance that cystitis could lead to a more serious kidney infection in some cases, so it’s important to seek medical advice if your symptoms do not improve.
The main symptoms of cystitis include:
- pain, burning or stinging when you pee
- needing to pee more often and urgently than normal
- urine that’s dark, cloudy or strong smelling
- pain low down in your tummy
- feeling generally unwell, achy, sick and tired
Possible symptoms in young children include:
- pain in their tummy
- needing to pee urgently or more often
- a high temperature (fever) of 38C or above
- weakness or irritability
- reduced appetite and vomiting
What can increase your risk of getting Cystitis?
Most cases are thought to occur when bacteria that live harmlessly in the bowel or on the skin get into the bladder through the tube that carries urine out of your body (urethra).
It’s not always clear how this happens.
But some things can increase your risk of getting it, including:
- having sex
- wiping your bottom from back to front after going to the toilet
- having a thin tube inserted into the urethra to drain the bladder (urinary catheter)
- being younger than 1 or older than 75
- being pregnant
- using a diaphragm for contraception
- having diabetes
- having a weakened immune system
Women may get cystitis more often than men because their bottom (anus) is closer to their urethra and their urethra is much shorter, which means bacteria may be able to get into the bladder more easily.
What can help with Cystitis?
If you have been having mild symptoms for less than 3 days or you have had cystitis before and do not feel you need to see a GP, you may want to treat your symptoms at home or ask a pharmacist for advice.
Until you’re feeling better, it may help to:
- take paracetamol or ibuprofen
- drink plenty of water
- hold a hot water bottle on your tummy or between your thighs
- avoid having sex
- pee frequently
- wipe from front to back when you go to the toilet
- gently wash around your genitals with a skin-sensitive soap
Some people believe that cranberry drinks and products that reduce the acidity of their urine (such as sodium bicarbonate or potassium citrate) will help.
