Does Phenazopyridine work for UTIs?
Phenazopyridine manages the painful symptoms associated with UTIs. Please note this medication is not an antibiotic but can be taken with antibiotics until the pain subsides.
Is phenazopyridine a good fit for everyone?
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to medication. Your provider can help you understand the best UTI meds based on your medical history.
What dosage of phenazopyridine is right for me?
Your provider will decide what dosage is right for you based on your medical history.
How long does phenazopyridine take and last?
While every person is different, phenazopyridine typically starts working within 20 minutes of taking it. We only recommend a two day dosage taken three times a day. Your pain will subside quickly as you are treating your UTI with antibiotics.
Why should I purchase phenazopyridine from Admired instead of my local pharmacy?
While the medication is the same, when you choose Admired to treat your UTI, you will have a stress-free experience. No doctor's visits or waiting rooms, no insurance hassles, and your prescription is sent to your local pharmacy. Get back to being you again.
Do I need insurance to purchase medications?
With Admired, you do not need any form of insurance, which makes for a much easier path to get your UTI meds. We create a more attainable, affordable, and private option.
