Medical Treatment for Urinary Tract Infections
2022, Urologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :It is believed that vitamin C can have bacteriostatic effects via the reduction of urinary nitrates to reactive nitrogen oxides. A weak association has been found between dietary vitamin C and a decreased risk of UTI in healthy young women and pregnant women (odds ratio (OR): 0.59, 95% CI: 0.35–0.98 - no prior UTI; OR: 0.85,95% CI: 0.58–1.25 - >/ = 1 prior UTI).47,48 Vitamin C has not been found to decrease the incidence of UTI in patients with spinal cord injury (see Table 7).49
