Cranberry is a North American herb commonly used for the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections (UTIs) and kidney stone management.
Indications
- Treatment and prevention of urinary tract infection
- Kidney stones
Pharmacology
Cranberry inhibits adherence of bacteria to the lining of the urinary bladder and urethra. At higher dose it also works as a urinary antiseptic and reduces incidence of stone formation. Recent publications show as much as 65% reduction in UTI with cranberry consumption leading to reduced use of antibiotics and reduction in the number of incidences of recurrent cystitis.
