* Supportive therapy in urinary tract infections (UTIs)
* Diuretic and antispasmodic effects for urinary tract discomfort
## Adult Dosing
* **General:** 1-2 tablets twice daily after meals.
* **Maximum:** Specific maximum dose is not well-established in standard pharmacopeias; follow product labeling or prescriber recommendations.
## Pediatric Dosing
* Dosing in pediatric populations is not well-established. Use with caution and under strict medical supervision. Consult product literature or a pediatrician for any available guidance.
## Dose Adjustments
* No specific dose adjustments are typically recommended for renal or hepatic impairment due to its herbal nature. However, caution is advised, and patient response should be monitored.
## Contraindications
