Pyridium (Phenazopyrid) dose question..

[Violenza666]

I have a UTI and I have anti biotics and pyridium. Is it safe to double dose the pyridium? It numbs the urinary tract so it doesn't feel like you're pissing glass shards? It doesn't get you high or anything but fuck I need some relief? Anybody been through this or have any advice? Thanks

Talk to your doctor.

I did talk to my dr. Now I am asking here.

And what did your doc say?? Cause I'd think his advise would be more useful than an interweb forum

He said to take it as prescribed. But all it does is numb the urinary tract.. There is an OTC verson of the medication as well.. I am only asking because I have no clue and I was wondering if anyone else has had a UTI and taken the stuff before. Someone I know said I could double up the dose but she also snorts ibuprofen soooo I don't really do anything she says.

The pain is being caused by an infection in your urethra, in order for your therapy to be process, you have to take the meds AS PRESCRIBED. it might not happen right away but after a couple days of taking the bactrim/macrobid/macrodantin you should feel better, but make sure to finish the antibiotics as written to full eradicate the bacteria. and like the others have said, follow an MD's order, not an uncredited person on the internet. UTI's are common, they deal with this shit everyday, they know what they're talking about.

wow you guys are kinda bein dicks to her, she's just asking a question that requires your opinion and or previous knowledge of this medicine, she's in pain and is just trying to get a relief, urinary infections can be quite painful. Mal I don't know much about the subject myself but I did find a discussion board that has a large amount of discussion about pyridium collected into one spot maybe you could browse it and see what people are saying about it's use, hopefully you can find some more information that's helpful... sorry I don't know more

howds you get this. NOOO dont do it. use that medicine as prescribed antibiotics will fuck you body up instead of fix it i have a penis and i had a catheter. i know what it feels like.

it will suck for a few days but it will pass I know it sounds lame but just fucking close your eyes and scream if you have to piss as much as you can and drink cranberrry juice like no other

I get UTI's from urinary retention from opiates and rough sex lol... Happens every so often. The antibiotics I am taking as prescribed it's just the analgesic I was wondering If I could double dose on. I have been drinking cranberry juice as well as taking cranberry pills. It sucks

Double dosing the pyridium would be like double dosing vicodin minus some people getting high. Just more relief. I am only wondering if anybody here has done it for the same reason...

I don't have a penis, but getting a catheter sucks.. I am sorry you went through that.

Thank you Bananas and B for not being assholes about it.

To everyone else that responded just because I asked a question that does not relate to getting high doesn't mean you have to be cunts about it. Seriously grow the fuck up. I hope one day you feel like you're pissing glass shards and somebody talks to you like that when you ask for help.
