Efficacy of Collagen, Propolis Plus Quercetin (Proqutin®), Bacillus Coagulans, Hyaluronic Acid and Chondroitin Sulphate and D-Mannose to Avoid Symptoms and Prevents Recurrence in Women With Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections (IMProBaCist-Q)

October 23, 2024 updated by: Gaetano Riemma, University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli"

EFFICACIA DI UN INTEGRATORE A BASE DI D-MANNOSIO, PROPOLI, QUERCETINA, COLLAGENE E BACILLUS COAGULANS NEL RIDURRE L'INCIDENZA E MIGLIORARE LA QUALITA' DI VITA IN DONNE CON CISTITE RICORRENTE

The aim of this study is to evaluate whether a dietary supplement based on D-mannose, collagen, hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulphate, enhanced by the properties of quercetin plus propolis (Proqutin ®) and Bacillus Coagulans, eventually associated with antimicrobial prophylaxis, could be effective in preventing recurrent UTIs and improving related quality of life.
