Infections of the urinary tract:
50% of all women were affected by cystitis or other urinary tract infections at least once in their lives;
20-30% of those women who have had cystitis or other urinary tract infections have almost always suffered from relapses;
80% of all urinary tract infections are caused by urophagogenic E. coli (UPEC - Uropathogenic E. coli);
Because of their specific anatomy, women are more affected than men;
The increasing emergence of resistance requires a reasonable use of antibiotics. The European treatment practice attempts to achieve good control of the symptoms of acute cystitis without complications and at the same time to reduce the use of antibiotics.
New therapeutic approaches are required.
Innovation for the control and prevention of urinary tract infections
Utipro plus is the first medical product that works against the cause of urinary tract infection - the intestines. It is the first and only product that functions primarily in the intestine and maintains normal bladder function.
Characteristics:
1. Utipro plus contains 3 natural ingredients.
2. Utipro plus works in 2 places at the same time - in the intestine and in the bladder.
3. Utipro plus demonstrates an innovative mechanism of action.
4. Utipro plus rapidly improves the symptoms of urinary tract infection.
5. Utipro plus may be taken with or without antibiotics.
6. Utipro plus is effective in acute and recurrent cystitis.
7. Utipro plus has a very good tolerance.
Utipro plus contains 3 natural ingredients
Xyloglucan-Gelatin: 150 mg;
Hibiscus: 100 mg;
Propolis: 100 mg.
Utipro plus works in 2 areas simultaneously - mainly in the intestine and supports the bladder:
Gut - Rapid reduction of relevant bacteria and lower risk of ascending infections;
Bladder - Local symptom control.
Basic mechanical action in the intestine by biofilm formation
XYLOGLUCAN-GELATINE:
It passes unchanged through the acidic environment of the stomach and reaches the intestines;
Forms a biofilm based on a protein that covers the surface of the intestinal mucosa;
Prevents the adhesion and growth of bacteria and prevents their entry into the bladder.
SECONDLY, promotes bladder function via Hibiscus and Propolis
HIBISCUS:
Hibiscus is rich in proanthocyanidins and vitamin C.
They have a double effect in the bladder:
Antiadhesive effect: Proanthocyanidins reduce the adhesion of E. coli to the bladder epithelium;
Urine acidification: Vitamin C acidifies urine. This leads to an increase in the formation of nitrogen monoxide, which suppresses the proliferation of bacteria.
PROPOLIS:
Strengthens the antiadhesive effect of proanthocyanidins;
Antibacterial and immunostimulating effect.
Utipro plus versus placebo
Significant improvement in symptoms after 5 days of treatment;
Rapid reduction of pain in bladder emptying;
Rapid reduction of urinary urgency;
Utipro plus - in 9 out of 10 patients, no antibiotic or other therapy is required.

Field of application:
This medical device is used for the control and prevention of urinary tract infections caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as E. coli and other gram negative bacteria that are commonly involved in the occurrence of urological infections. Utipro plus, consisting of Gelatine and Xyloglucan, has a mechanical effect inside the intestine by which the contact of the pathogens with the intestinal mucosa is suppressed. This contact is the first step of their spread and their subsequent penetration into the urinary tract. Utipro plus is taken orally at the first symptoms of urinary tract infection to reduce the growth of pathogens that can lead to infections. In case of recurrent infections, Utipro plus is used to prevent relapse where the proliferation of pathogens leads to re-infection of the urinary tract.
Ingredients: Combination of Gelatine and Xyloglucan (hemicellulose), Propolis, Hibiscus sabdariffa, Silica, Magnesium Stearate, Grain Starch.
Warnings:
Diagnosis of urinary tract infection should be diagnosed by a healthcare professional.
We recommend that you consult a doctor in the following cases: if the diagnosis is unclear, if the symptoms are severe (such as fever), if the patient's age is under 14 years and if another disease or risk factors are present.
Acute urinary tract infection may require antibiotic treatment if necessary.
This medical device is not an antibiotic and has no bactericidal or bacterial-inhibiting effect against pathogens, which means it can not replace an antibiotic course prescribed by a medical specialist.
