There is a wealth of info on the internet. I found that, this drug only helps in the first stages of a Urinary Tract Infection, but not so much, once it reaches the Bladder. My advice: You can't depend on a "magic pill" to...

I have been on this drug for about 40 years due to removal of 2 0f my 3 kidneys. This drug worked wonderfully in preventing further infections, but has been removed from the market. What can I take to replace it? My doctors seem to want to prescribe medication to treat an infection rather than preventing one.

I have been on this medicine for 11 years, because I have an Indiana Pouch that keeps infection in it. It seems this medicine has been taken off the market and I cannot get my prescription refilled. I would like to know why it was taken off the market and what can replace it?
