Uribel is indicated for the symptomatic relief of urinary tract infections, including burning urination, urinary frequency, and bladder discomfort. It may be prescribed for other urinary tract conditions as determined by a healthcare provider.
Uribel contains a combination of ingredients including methenamine (a urinary antiseptic that converts to formaldehyde in acidic urine to inhibit bacterial growth), methylene blue (which has mild antibacterial and analgesic properties), and sodium phosphate (which helps maintain acidic urine). These agents work synergistically to reduce bacterial growth and alleviate urinary discomfort.
Uribel will cause urine to turn blue or green, which is harmless. Patients should take the full course as prescribed and stay well hydrated. This medication may not be suitable for patients with kidney or liver impairment, and it may interact with certain medications including antidepressants and other drugs affecting the urinary tract. Patients should inform their healthcare provider of all medications and medical conditions before use.
