not a good idea to use antibiotics if you don’t have a bacterial infection.

Methenamine is not an antibiotic.

It is an antiseptic. In the acidic environment of the urine, methenamine is hydrolyzed to ammonia and formaldehyde.

Its mechanism of action is driven by the formation of bactericidal formaldehyde, which possesses nonspecific antimicrobial activity by denaturing proteins and nucleic acid of bacteria it helps to control chronic lower urinary tract infections. It does not develop bacterial resistance.

Is this to be taken just when having a UTI or is this daily as a preventative?

[tango65 in reply to gsun]

Taking daily as a preventative.

I’m assuming you have a UTI? Only a urine test will confirm bacterial/infection and depending on the results they will offer the correct medication for that particular bacterial/infection strain. No Dr appointment needed most walk-in clinics provide that service. Covered by insurance.
