Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) Services in Hackney

Get UTI Treatment at Norlington Pharmacy

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) can affect various components of the urinary system, including the bladder (cystitis), urethra (urethritis), and kidneys (pyelonephritis).

Bladder infections are prevalent and typically manageable when addressed promptly. However, if left untreated, the infection may ascend to the kidneys, leading to more severe health issues. Most UTIs are effectively treated with antibiotics.

How is a UTI treated with our UTI Treatment service in Hackney

At Norlington Pharmacy in Hackney, we offer effective treatment for urinary tract infections (UTIs) using antibiotics such as nitrofurantoin. This medication is specifically designed to combat bacteria in the urinary tract. Upon ingestion, nitrofurantoin is filtered from the bloodstream into the urine, concentrating the antibiotic directly at the site of infection. This targeted approach enhances its effectiveness against UTIs.

The typical course of nitrofurantoin for treating a UTI ranges from 3 to 7 days, depending on the severity of the infection and individual patient factors. It's essential to complete the full course as prescribed to ensure the infection is fully eradicated and to prevent recurrence.

For personalized advice and treatment options, please consult with our healthcare professionals at Norlington Pharmacy.
