Cystitis
Consultation & Treatments At Pharmacy2U
Many women suffer from cystitis on a regular basis and
learn to recognise the symptoms. If you have been
treated for cystitis by your doctor before and can
recognise the symptoms, then we can conveniently supply
you with the most common treatment to keep ready for
when you next have a problem. A course of antibiotic
treatment can be provided for only £15.00.
Our service is not suitable for women who are under 18
years of age. Our UK registered GPs will assess if our
service is suitable for you from your answers to our
questionnaire. The service is not suitable for men, or
women allergic to trimethoprim. You should not take
trimethoprim if you are pregnant or breast feeding,
suffer from blood disorders or have liver or kidney
problems or if you are taking certain medicines from
your doctor, such as methotrexate.
Please note
that it is advisable that you see your doctor for a
thorough check-up and assessment if you have had
cystitis more than 3 times in a year – your doctor will
try to find the cause for recurrent cystitis and remedy
the cause where possible.
When should you use the treatment provided?
As soon as you recognise the cystitis symptoms as
diagnosed by your doctor before, you should start the
course of antibiotics provided. If the cystitis you are
suffering from is caused by a bacterial infection then
your symptoms will improve within a couple of days, and
you should complete the course to ensure the infection
is treated. You should also drink lots of fluid. It is
possible that your symptoms are not caused by a simple
bladder infection. If this is the case the treatment
provided will not improve your symptoms and they may
worsen. In this case, it is very important that you
visit your GP immediately to find out the cause. You
should, however, continue the course of antibiotics
unless your GP directs otherwise.
