Summary: This has worked for me
Comment: The last time I had a bladder infection I felt it coming on and it became really painful. Being that it was a Friday evening I really didn't want to go to an urgent care or emergency room so I went to the health food store and bought the Now brand of D-Mannosein hopes it would at least take the edge off. By the end of the night after two doses 90% of the pain was gone. After a couple days all of the pain was gone. I went off it and I would get a hint of pain and I would take some more and it would go away. I recommend trying D-Mannose especially if you have reoccurring infections. If it works for you it is a lot less of a hassle and so much healthier.

Summary: D-mannose changed my life
Comment: For the past 2 years I suffered a uti every time I had sex, regardless of obsessive hygiene. The constant use of antibiotics (macrobid, cipro, bactrim) damaged my joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves, especially those in my arms hands and shoulders.

The physical and emotional toll of the uti's and antibiotics was severe and I was at the point where I thought I could never have sex again.

By chance I read an obscure testimonial online about the healing power of this magical sugar and I am relieved to say that since using d-mannose I no longer get a uti after sex. This fact has changed my life and my body is slowly healing from the effects of the antibiotics.

I want everyone who has or is suffering from chronic uti's, and the horrible side effects of antibiotics, to know about d-mannose. It works.

Summary: Finally, something that works!
Comment: A bladder infection is nothing to take lightly. If you ignore it or try home remedies, you could end up in the hospital with a kidney infection; so, if you *know* you have a full-blown infection, please see a doctor! On the other hand, if you think you *might* be getting one, or you get them frequently, maybe D-Mannose is worth a try.

Whenever I get that telltale stinging sensation or tenderness in the lower abdomen, I immediately start taking 1 tsp of D-Mannose in water, twice a day. I usually feel better within an hour after the first dose, but I find it takes about three days to make sure the discomfort stays gone. I think I might get even better results if I took it once a week as a preventative measure. Prior to finding this product, I'd tried cranberry juice concentrate capsules, pure cranberry juice, gallons of water, and a couple of home remedies I found on the Internet, but I always ended up in the doctor's office anyway. Now I have a first line of defense that actually works!

The bottle looks small, but you actually get quite a few doses out of it. I've used it for several courses of treatment already, and still have some left, though it's finally time to reorder. It's not medicine-y or gritty at all; in fact, if you put a bit on the tip of your tongue, it tastes a little like powdered sugar. I can't promise you this will work for you, but it's definitely something I don't want to run out of.

Summary: Wonderful product
Comment: A lot of research led me to D Mannose. Actually, I don't use it, but give it to my dog. Until I found the D Mannose, she had drug resistant bladder infections over and over. We were using 500.00 prescriptions to try to take care of the problem. Bella has Addison's Disease and is prone to all sorts of problems anyway. Once I began to use D Mannose about 8 months ago she has had NO infections of any sort. My dog has to have a bladder ultrasound and culture every 6 weeks, and so far, knock on wood, the recurrent bladder infections are GONE. I give one teaspoon twice a day in liquid. She loves it. I'm sure that it would work for humans too. I know that if I get an infection we'll have to share the D Mannose!
