Does URIEXO® really work?
We meticulously formulated URIEXO® based on what’s been proven to work, and not old wives’ tales, by leveraging the best clinical research available to create the URIEXO® special formula. The research demonstrates how each ingredient is important in reaching and binding to bacteria in the urinary tract to help flush them out, keeping you healthy and off antibiotics.
URIEXO® provides a clinically-backed, double-pronged approach to fight new bacteria causing Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs).
Is URIEXO® a treatment for UTIs?

URIEXO® is approved by Health Canada as a Natural Health Product to help prevent recurrence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and its associated symptoms (painful or difficult urination, frequent urination, urgency to urinate, & suprapubic pain), when used daily. If you are experiencing symptoms of a urinary tract infection, we highly recommend that you schedule an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. Infections can be serious if left untreated. URIEXO® may help with symptomatic relief however it is a prevention medication that helps to naturally flush out bacteria from the urinary tract.

Anyone suffering from recurrent or chronic UTIs should consider URIEXO® daily for UTI prevention. You may also want to consider taking URIEXO® if you are prone to UTIs as a result of sex, certain birth control, menopause, various medical conditions like diabetes or conditions that limit your mobility, or if you use a catheter to urinate. These conditions increase your risk of getting recurrent UTIs and URIEXO® is clinically proven for the prevention of UTIs no matter the situation. While UTIs affect mostly women, men may develop UTIs as well and can benefit from once daily URIEXO® .
