Patient's question:
Doctor, recently I have again experienced symptoms of urinary urgency, frequent urination, and dysuria. I am very worried. I searched for information and found that it might be a urinary tract infection. They advised me to buy many Compound Stone Vine from a pharmacy. Could you please advise me? Do people take Compound Stone Vine for urinary tract infections?Doctor's answer:
Shiwei Granules is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine preparation, primarily used for diuretic and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as clearing heat and drying dampness. It can be used to treat conditions such as urinary tract infections, nephritis, and cystitis. Drinking plenty of water, strictly avoiding sexual activity, and avoiding spicy and greasy foods are recommended. Additionally, the therapeutic effect can be enhanced by taking antibiotics, or other oral traditional Chinese herbal medicines that clear heat and detoxify can also be used.
