Azo-Cranberry Reviews
For Urinary Tract Infection "While Azo-Cranberry is good for preventing UTIs, I am concerned about the side effects. I had been taking Azo daily for two years and experiencing dizziness, foggy brain, nerve pain, headaches, tinnitus, and of course, extreme tiredness. I thought at first it was just part of menopause but finally went to the doctor, then neurologist with no relief or suggestions as to why I felt so bad. I finally stopped taking Azo, and within a week, I felt so much better. So no more Azo-Cranberry for me. Someone needs to warn women about these side effects!"
For Urinary Tract Infection "The first time I ever took this, I did not expect any side effects whatsoever from all the reading I did about it. So I was really surprised when I felt incredible fatigue the whole rest of the day, along with terrible muscle pain throughout. A few days later, I tried it again and the same thing happened. Now, after two months, I tried it again and the same exact side effects. I can't find anyone else on the Internet that has mentioned this overwhelming fatigue and pain side effect of this AZO Cranberry. I am not sure why it happened, but I now believe that it's because of it. Hope this helps someone who is looking for the same thing I was."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I brought these Azo-Cranberry to help prevent UTI, but after two days of taking them, I started to have headaches, dizzy spells, and feeling unwell. Stopped them, and it cleared up. Tried them a week later, and the very same thing. I take no other medications. Sad because I was truly excited about taking them. Hope this helps someone else."
For Urinary Incontinence "Since I have been taking cranberry, I have had a quicker period where my urine infection has cleared up and the time period between me having to use the bathroom has improved, and I am able to hold in my urine long enough to make it to the bathroom. I am very happy with this form of treatment. I am not one to try herbal medicines, but this one truly works."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I started taking Azo hoping to keep my UTI's at a minimal. I have had upper abdominal pain, pain in my back on both sides and burning when I urinate. I thought I had a UTI and went to the doctor. No UTI. I have stopped taking this after reading the side effects. Pills went into garbage."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I took two of these when I could feel the first twinges of a UTI and within 20 minutes, I had a headache, tiredness, muscle and joint aches, and a sore throat. I had been completely fine all day before this. I will not be using AZO products anymore, as I think I may be allergic to something in them."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I began taking this while having a very bad UTI and was taking to prevent UTI's; however, after reading the comments about reactions, I am stopping immediately. I thought the extreme fatigue, dizziness, headaches, gastro problems and muscle pain were maybe carry-overs from the three UTI's I had in a row since I don't normally have these problems I have listed on a recurring basis. I have many medical problems but not these which are happening very often. I also began staying awake all night and when I take my BP it will be 200+/100+ so I take another BP pill and am able to sleep. I don't know whether this could be related as I didn't see anyone mention it."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I had been having a dull pain on my right side of my back. Severe nausea, dizziness, sore throat, bad taste in mouth, confusion, foggy thinking and anxiety. Well after 5 days of suffering I got a COVID TEST which it came back NEGATIVE! So I don't have insurance therefore I prayed and instantly I thought about a UTI, I keep AZO pills on hand and took them immediately cause I was hurting real bad and in less that 10 minutes all that pain subsided! Glory to God...they worked a miracle!!! Still see a doctor though....BUT THEY REALLY WORK!!"
For Urinary Tract Infection "I take Azo-Cranberry for the prevention of UTIs. It works for me. I take one pill twice a day with a large glass of water on an empty stomach. If I forget to take it for several days and don’t drink enough water and drink carbonated beverages and put off going to the bathroom I tend to get infections. I do not take supplements through the mail in hot weather because of possible damage to them from heat."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I get frequent UTI’s, my doctor recommended this after my last UTI was cleared up with antibiotics. I take 2 azo cranberry gel caps per day, and 1000mg of a chewable (Nature Made Vit C tab). So far, I feel great! Keeps UTIs from coming back, and drink plenty of water!!"
For Urinary Tract Infection "Taking AZO it did help with my urinary pain, But No it does not cure the bacteria that causes the pain. So I decided to see my doctor. The two dosage pill made me feel comfortable after taking it. I personally had no side effects, No fatigue, dizziness, nor nausea."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I started this supplement for a bad UTI. I followed the directions and took 2 a day. The first day I took it I literally didn’t fall asleep until 3:30 am and the next day I took it I fell asleep at 5:00 am. Needless to say I will never take it again! I read one reviewer who said she was up all night as well."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I was having issues with UTIs, I started taking azo cranberry. They are the best thing that has helped prevent me from getting any more UTIs. I take them at night, they make me a little sleepy. But it is helps me relax and I feel great in the morning. thank God for these!"
For Urinary Tract Infection "I'm plagued by frequent UTIs, and at the first twinge, I take two of these, and many times it staves off the infection!"
For Urinary Tract Infection "Taking 2 pills at a time I have now realized it causes serious acidic issues in my throat and esophagus. I am going to try taking one to see if this solves the problem."
For Urinary Tract Infection "The only thing that the Azo-Cranberry has done for me is giving me diarrhea for days!!! I do not recommend this of you have it throw it away. It's not worth trying."
For Urinary Tract Infection "Honestly I don’t know if it’s the pills but I’ve been having diarrhea, vomiting, and headaches."
For Urinary Tract Infection "I have been taking AZO cranberry for about 2 weeks. I started itching all over . I have had non stop itching and hives since using this product. Today after taking it I broke out into hives."
