Cornus Mas and Urinary Tract Infections Treatment
Journal Title: Translational Research in Urology - Year 2020, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Urinary tract infections (UTI) are somehow complicated to treat and patients frequently will have the problem of infection recurrence after complete cure. Usually, the UTI treatment is done by antibiotics but the problem of bacterium resistance and sensitivity should be always kept in mind. The recent trends in herbal medicine open new insight to cranberry (Cornus mas) as the promising anti-infection and anti-cancer substance. It has shown anti-infection properties in UTI especially for the complete treatment of urinary tract recurrent infection. However, it can increase the risk of kidney stones and have interaction with warfarin.
