Where can I find Dewitt pills for kidney & bladder in Hong Kong? ## Where can I buy Dewitt urinal pills? I cannot seem to find them. ## These pills are no longer being manufactured, so they are not available in any country. DeWitt stopped making them years ago, since they were not approved by the FDA, or other medical agencies. The best suggestion I an make is that you both consult your respective doctors to get a proper diagnosis as to what is causing your problem, and the best way to treat it. Are either of you prone to urinary tract infections? If so, you may require an antibiotic, such as Nitrofurantoin, which is commonly used to treat urinary tract infections. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

kidney infection ## This is a combo antibiotic, commonly used for those types of infections. Sulfamethoxazole Info Click Here ## I am a spinal cord injury (SCI) and my SCI doctor has had me on this drug for 10 yesrs since my accident. It prevents Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), because I self-cath up to 8 times a day. I have not noticed any side effects other than an occasional yeast infection. Every couple months or so, I will stop taking it for a week or two just to give my system a break and so I do not build up a tolerance to it. However, if I stay off too long, I usually end up getting a UTI which then must be treated by a stronger antibiotic. This sulfa drug is considered a maintenance drug and I take it once a day. I'd be happy to answer any other questions you have. ## Grea...
