If you already have the UTI, you will most likely need antibiotics. Cranberry juice can reduce the likelihood of future UTI's. Cranberries contain chemicals called proanthocyanidins that prevent _E. coli_ (the most common cause of UTI's) from adhering to the urinary epithelium. Note that it is not the acidity--that was a previous theory that was never proven.

There are no home remedies to cure uti's. Only prescription antibiotics can do this. But some things can help prevent them or at least ease the symptoms. Some people find cranberry juice effective. The acid in the juice keeps the bacteria in the bladder from sticking to the bladder walls. Lots of water is good too because it flushes the bacteria out of our system.

Cranberry juice and lots of fluids. Water yes, tea is ok too. Tea is a diuretic so it makes you pee more. If it doesn't get better in a few days, go to the doctor to get checked out.
And..make sure you are wiping correctly after going to the bathroom...

I don't know if it's a remedy, but cranberry juice is wonderful for preventing it from happening in the first place.

Organic cranberry juice and cranberry supplements. The cranberry keeps the bacteria from adhering to your bladder. No need for antibiotics if you are aggressive and catch it early. You need to drink more water regularly.

The best tried one is to use an infusion of the inside lining of the faecal sac of a freshly slaughtered poultry
Let me explain , go to your butcher and ask to have the faecal sac of a freshly slaughtered poultry ... slit it in two just like cutting an apple in two.
The lining of the inside of the organ is yellowish couloured and is striated. Just peel it off it comes out so easily. Wash in running tap water and infuse for half an hour in a cup of hot boiling water.
Leave to cool and drink the cup early morning . Always use fresh lining ... refrigerated one do not work well.... take for at least two to three days regular and watch the results
It also works miracles in case of kidney stone

Cranberry. Lots and lots and lots of cranberry juice. Or... lots and lots and lots of water and take cranberry pills (you can find them in the vitamin section of any grocery or supplement store).
