It's called D-mannose. You can buy it at the health food store in powdered form or capsules. The powdered form works faster. If you are taking antibiotics they don't usually get out the e-coli because they can stick to the cells causing it to keep coming back.
The antibiotics also kill the good bacteria instead of the bad so you have a good chance of getting recurring Uti's. D-mannose with Cranactin comes from fruit and is 50 times more powerful than cranberries alone. If you have an infection it only works for those caused with the e-coli bacteria.
You take 1 teaspoon,or 4 capsules, every 2 to 3 hours you are awake for up to 8 hours. The e-coli bonds with the sugars in the D-mannose and is harmlessly passed out of your body.
Results should be within 48 hours. After the symptoms are gone, you can keep taking a half a teaspoon, or 2 capsules, of the powder to maintain a healthy tract.
There are no side effects. It's safe for pregnant women, children and pets. IF you're diabetic it doesn't metabolize so it won't interfere with you blood sugar.
From my own personal experience, this is what has worked for me.I use Kal D-Mannose Powder all natural with no fillers 1600mg. Thats the brand name, there are others on the market that are probably just as good.After the 48 hours of using the powder to get rid of the ecoli,I take one tsp. mixed with a little water every night after urination, before bed, so the d-mannose can stay in your bladder overnight so it will kill the bacteria and keep it gone,this is for maintenence.
