"Being susceptible to UTIs, this medication definitely helps when I’m not able to get to my doctor's. I’m currently on vacation and was up every hour last night. I ran to CVS and was feeling better in no time."

"IDK, I came on here to see if anybody else felt nauseated for the whole day after taking these, because that’s how I feel. My stomach hurts sooo bad, and I just know it’s this medication. IDK, it’s not for me. It helped me with my UTI pain, though."

"I took the drug and followed Dr.'s instructions. First day, I began to have an uneasy stomach, and the following day, I vomited food and a pill. After four days of stopping taking the pill, I'm still having an uneasy stomach. I have also had leg cramps at night. This medicine is not for me."

"Took as directed along with antibiotics. Didn't do anything for me. Did not decrease burning sensation, urgency, or pain. My urine came out looking like a radioactive tequila sunrise. Not a repeat purchase for me."

"Azo is normally a godsend for when you have a UTI and you're waiting for antibiotics to kick in. However, it can be dangerous to take more than 2 days in a row. I've had a UTI that for some reason won't go away, and I've been taking Azo for a number of days. My red blood cell count is super low, my O2 sats are low, my glucose levels are sky high, and apparently, frequent use may cause tumors in the intestines and may increase the risk of bladder cancer. Talk to your doctor about long-term side effects if you need to continue this medication for a longer period of time than normal."

"I was experiencing frequent urination and fatigue. I took Azo, the max strength. I took it one day. The next day, I was in terrible pain in my lower abdomen. I went to the doctor and found out I had inflammation in my lower intestines."

"I have been taking this product for a day, and I feel nauseous all the time. I threw up twice because of it. I would not recommend it. I wasn’t feeling like this before I started taking Azo, and I know I threw up because of it because my vomit was orange, just like my pee."

"Review of Azo Urinary Relief (Phenazopyridine): I took Azo Urinary Relief, extra strength, as directed for two days. The drug worked as intended. However, the evening I finished the last dose, I began experiencing significant gastrointestinal symptoms—gas pains, bloating, mild nausea, and loss of appetite. These symptoms lasted for about three full days, with things starting to resolve on the third day. The discomfort was enough to make me think something worse was going on. While stomach upset is listed as a possible side effect, I think it’s important to know that these effects can be moderate to severe and may begin after completing the medication, not necessarily during use. The product information and common reviews don’t seem to fully reflect this, and I believe users would benefit from clearer warnings based on experiences like mine."
