First seen Jun 11, 2026 · Last updated Jun 11, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether D-mannose, a natural sugar, can prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in people who need a catheter for a long time. Nineteen participants with recurrent UTIs were followed to see if D-mannose reduced the number of infections needing treatment. The goal was to find a simple, non-antibiotic way to prevent these common infections.
