Huena Tablet

Product Overview

Huena Tablet is an antiseptic medication used to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). It works by converting into formaldehyde in acidic urine, which helps eliminate harmful bacteria and keeps the urinary tract clear of infection-causing microbes.

Take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor, usually twice daily after meals and at bedtime to reduce stomach discomfort. For best results, ensure that your urine remains acidic, as the medication’s antibacterial action depends on acidic conditions (urine pH ≤ 5.5). Avoid substances that make the urine less acidic, such as certain antacids. It’s important to complete the full course to avoid recurring infections or antibiotic resistance. Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are recommended to track progress and adjust treatment if needed.

Some common side effects include nausea, stomach upset, and skin rashes. These are often temporary and resolve as your body adjusts. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor promptly.

This medicine is not recommended for individuals with severe kidney impairment, significant liver disease, or dehydration, as it can increase the risk of crystal formation and irritation in the urinary tract. It should also be avoided in people with indwelling catheters or consistently alkaline urine, which may reduce its effectiveness. Caution is advised for patients with a history of kidney stones or gastrointestinal problems. Always inform your doctor about other medications you are taking, especially sulfonamides, as combining them may raise the risk of side effects.
