The Best Homeopathic Remedies for a UTI                                              

There’s no way to say this delicately, so I’m just gonna go for it. And after all, this is a safe place, and we’re all friends here, right? So, friends, here goes: I used to get UTIs (urinary tract infections). ALL. THE. TIME. It sucked. But the silver lining? Once I discovered there were homeopathic remedies for a UTI, I was able to stop them in their tracks.

The Magic of Cantharis

Of all the homeopathic remedies for a UTI that are out there, the number one remedy I used was the homeopathic remedy Cantharis. It was amazing, and it never let me down.

I would take 5 pellets the instant something felt “off,” then continue taking doses every 1-2 hours for the first day. If needed, and if I noticed my symptoms improving at least a little bit, I would continue taking the remedy every few hours on the second day. Usually, that’s all it took, and it was frequently gone the next day.

There Are Many Homeopathic Remedies for a UTI

Cantharis worked like a charm (at least for me), but there are actually a number of homeopathic remedies that can help with UTIs. And, since homeopathy works best when you match the correct symptoms to the correct remedy, it’s worth going over the main ones so you can pick the one best suited to your issue.

The great thing about homeopathy is there are no side effects, and if you pick the wrong remedy, the only thing that will happen is, well, nothing. If it doesn’t help after 1-2 days, chances are it was the wrong remedy, and you should try a different one.

Remember, too, no matter what remedy you try, to drink a lot of water when you have a UTI. You want to pee as much as possible to flush those bacteria out.

6 of the Best Homeopathic Remedies for a UTI

Cantharis is best for UTIs that include the following symptoms:

  • Blood visible in the urine
  • Burning pain that gets worse before, during, or after you urinate (or while passing the last few drops of urine)
  • Constant but useless urge to urinate (often with just a few drops of urine)
  • Hot, cloudy urine
  • Itching and burning in the urethra
  • Pain focused in the urethra (not in the bladder)
  • Pain that makes you frantic and crazy

 

Apis Mellifica is best for UTIs that include the following symptoms:

  • Blood visible in the urine
  • Hot urine with a milky appearance (often has an offensive odor)
  • Stinging pain that gets worse just after urination (or while passing the last few drops of urine)
  • Very small amount of urine each time you go

 

Staphysagria is best for UTIs that include the following symptoms:

  • Constant pressure in the bladder
  • Frequent urge to urinate
  • Intense burning during and after urination
  • Pain in your lower back
  • Small amounts of urine when you do go
  • UTI came on just after you became angry at someone and suppressed that anger
  • UTI came on soon after you had an invasive procedure or gave birth

 

Equisetum is best for UTIs that include the following symptoms:

  • Severe, dull pain
  • Constant urge to urinate accompanied by passing large quantities of urine with no relief from pain
  • Clear or light-colored urine

 

Natrum Mur is best for UTIs that include the following symptoms:

Where to Find Homeopathic Remedies for a UTI

While these aren’t the only remedies, they are some of the most common and effective. All of these remedies can be purchased through Amazon (I like the Boiron brand). I generally purchase remedies with a 30C potency; however, if you’ve never used homeopathic remedies before, you could start with a lower potency (6X) and see if your symptoms improve. If they do show improvement but don’t go away, you may want to stick with the same remedy but switch to a higher potency.

Also, just to be on the safe side (because you don’t want to dilute a homeopathic remedy), it’s a good idea to take the remedy when you haven’t had anything to eat or drink for the last 30 minutes, and you aren’t planning to eat or drink anything for at least 30 minutes after taking the remedy.
