Can I use UTI Test Strips while taking Uqora's other products?Updated a month ago

We do not recommend using UTI Test Strips while taking UTI Pain Relief or Uqora Flush. UTI Pain Relief contains phenazopyridine hydrochloride, an orange organic dye. This dye enters the urine to take effect and relieve UTI pain. However, it also turns the urine bright orange! Since our UTI Test Strips use color to indicate if you might have a UTI, the orange urine will make them more difficult to interpret. If you’ve purchased both together, we suggest using UTI Test Strips before taking UTI Pain Relief. 

Uqora Flush contains Vitamin C. High intake of Vitamin C may impact the results of the UTI Test by impacting the perceived color. This could lead to a false negative nitrite result. For these reasons, we do not recommend taking UTI Pain Relief or Uqora Flush before using UTI Test Strips.
