Emergency Kit

We do not recommend using the test strips while taking the UTI pain relief or Uqora Flush. Our UTI pain relief contains phenazopyridine hydrochloride, an orange organic dye. This dye enters the urine to take effect and relieve UTI pain. However, it also turns the urine bright orange! Since our test strips use color to indicate if you might have a UTI, the orange urine will make them more difficult to interpret.

Uqora Flush contains Vitamin C. High intake of Vitamin C may impact the results of the test strips by impacting the perceived color. This could lead to a false negative nitrite result. For these reasons, while safe, we do not recommend taking our UTI pain relief or Uqora Flush before using the test strips.

Our UTI Emergency Kit includes 2 individually wrapped test strips. Our test strips include the same test that doctors use to see if you might have a UTI. If you suspect you have a UTI, the test strips will help you see your test results in just two minutes.

The tests work by detecting whether Nitrite and Leukocytes are present in your urine. Nitrites are a form of nitrogen that will often present itself if bacteria like E. coli are present in the urine. Leukocytes are white blood cells, which tend to show up when there’s inflammation or an infection in the urinary tract. The test evaluates if leukocyte esterase, an enzyme produced by white blood cells, is present in the urine. Generally, if both nitrites and leukocytes are detected in your urine, it’s likely that you have a UTI.

NOTE: The test strips will only detect certain types of bacteria, but not all. If you are experiencing symptoms you should see a doctor.

When used properly, the test strips can detect that you may have a UTI. Our test strips test for both leukocytes (white blood cells) and nitrites. These tests performed together are more effective for detecting a UTI than testing for nitrite alone.

Most substances will not interfere with the test. However, some medications, like the UTI Pain Relief, can affect the color of your urine, making it difficult to properly match the colors. For example, if you take more than 500 mg of Vitamin C in 24 hours, you may obtain a false negative nitrite result. The drug tetracycline may also cause a false negative leukocyte result. If you are having difficulty reading the test strip or getting a negative result while experiencing UTI symptoms, contact your healthcare professional immediately.

Uqora Flush contains Vitamin C. High intake of Vitamin C may impact the results of the test strips by impacting the perceived color. This could lead to a false negative nitrite result. For these reasons, while safe, we do not recommend taking our UTI Pain Relief or Uqora Flush before using the test strips.

Uqora’s UTI Infection Control includes 12 tablets that help control a UTI by helping to inhibit the progression of infection.

We recommend using our UTI Infection Control if you want antibacterial protection and want to control a UTI.

Uqora’s UTI Infection Control includes two active ingredients — sodium salicylate and methenamine, a powerful duo. Methenamine is an antibacterial medicine that slows the growth of bacteria along the urinary tract, helping you to control the UTI. Sodium salicylate is a pain reliever, to help relieve general pain and discomfort while methenamine does its thing. Note that while our UTI Infection Control inhibits the progression of an infection, it should not replace medical care and is just intended to slow the infection progression until you’re able to see your healthcare provider.

Uqora’s UTI Infection Control works by generating formaldehyde in the urine. The formaldehyde is toxic to the bacteria and slows their growth.

NOTE: that this process just helps inhibit the progression of an infection until you see a health care professional and should not replace medical care.

Uqora’s UTI infection control can be safely taken alongside any of Uqora’s other products. However, products that decrease the acidity of the urine (such as antacids, sodium bicarbonate, potassium or sodium citrate, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors such as acetazolamide) may reduce the effectiveness of the UTI infection Control. Since Uqora Flush makes the urine less acidic, taking Uqora Flush alongside our UTI infection control may reduce the effectiveness of our UTI infection control. While it is safe to do so, we recommend not taking Flush and our UTI infection control together for this reason.

It's important to be sure to visit a doctor if you think you have a UTI. Uqora’s UTI Infection Control is not meant to replace the care of a doctor, since there is no OTC remedy for urinary tract infections (UTIs) or self-treatment for UTIs. They require prescription medication to completely cure the infection. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you suspect a urinary tract infection.

Uqora’s UTI Pain Relief can be safely taken alongside any of Uqora’s other products. When using the UTI test strips, we recommend using the test strips first before taking the UTI Pain Relief.

Uqora's UTI Pain Relief includes 12 tablets that provide fast relief of UTI symptoms like pain, discomfort, urgency, and burning.

We recommend using our UTI Pain Relief if you have a UTI and need fast relief for urinary pain or discomfort.

Uqora’s UTI Pain Relief active ingredient, Phenazopyridine Hydrochloride, works by lining the mucosa of the urinary tract with a topical analgesic, which provides UTI pain relief. Heads up, the active ingredient in our UTI Pain Relief can turn your urine a bright orange color—that's a normal part of how this ingredient works, so don't be alarmed.

Yes, this is normal! The active ingredient in Uqora’s UTI Pain Relief is an orange organic dye. It takes action to relieve pain when it enters the urine, but it will turn the urine bright orange.
