Unlike general pain relievers, it directly targets the site of discomfort—your urinary tract—helping it to work quickly. Once you take AZO Urinary Pain Relief® Maximum Strength, you could find the relief you need in as little as 20 minutes.

Can AZO urinary tract defense get rid of UTI?

No, AZO Urinary Tract Defense does not cure a urinary tract infection. Its purpose is to keep you comfortable and to control the infection until you can see your primary care provider. Your doctor will prescribe an antibiotic medication capable of eliminating the bacteria responsible for the infection.

What does AZO urinary tract defense help with?

AZO Urinary Tract Defense contains methenamine to help control the infection until you can seek medical treatment and sodium salicylate to provide general pain relief. AZO Urinary Pain Relief contains phenazopyridine hydrochloride which provides fast, targeted relief for pain, burning and urgency associated with a UTI.

How many days do you take AZO urinary tract defense?

Response from AZO: This product is ideal to help control a UTI until you see your healthcare professional. The product is not intended to be used more than 3 days.
