What is Ellura and what is it used for?

It is a traditional cranberry-based medicine formulated to prevent the recurrence of cystitis or acute uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections, based exclusively on its traditional use.

It comes in a pack of 15 capsules.

Who it is intended for

Suitable for use by adult women over 18 years of age.

Directions for use

The recommended dose is 1 capsule per day.

Use this medicine when you suffer from recurrent urinary tract infections, which means you have had at least 3 or more episodes in the last 12 months or 2 or more episodes in the last 6 months.

Take one capsule per day for at least 15 consecutive days after finishing the antibiotic treatment of the last urinary tract infection to maintain a clean urinary tract and prevent recurrence of the infection.

The treatment can be repeated up to 4 times a year.

It is important to maintain regular intake of the drug as recommended to support the efficacy of the treatment. The frequency of treatment should be managed according to the number of previous infections or on the advice of your health care professional.
