Hi, how can I get rid of cystitis without going to the doctors?

You can take our Uva-ursi & Echinacea cystitis remedy for up to 6 weeks for the treatment of cystitis:

Take 15 drops in a small splash of water up to five times daily.

Be sure to also drink plenty of water daily, around 1.5l daily and also avoid caffeine and alcohol as much as possible.

Other home tips include watching your intake of sugar (both in drinks but also in foods), and considering hygiene tips plus supporting your immune system to help support your defences. We have more information on treating cystitis at home by clicking the following link.

Please remember, if you experience back pain, blood in your urine or if your symptoms don't start to improve we would recommend you go to the doctor as soon as you are able.
