Can you use ranitidine for bladder infection or urinary tract infections for a 10 year old girl?
Urinary tract infections require immediate medical attention and can only be treated with antibiotics. There are some medicines that can help with the pain, but they do not treat the infection. Pain meds include phenazopyridine (AZO, Uristat, Pyridium), which is the most effective; urinary alkalizers like Ural; and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen or aspirin. Topical hydrocortisone (0.5%-1%) can be put around the urethral opening to stop inflammation.
Ranitidine is prescribed by some urologists to treat interstitial cystitis, a condition where the bladder and urethra experience inflammation with no known cause. The ranitidine can prevent inflammation, and as sometimes the inflammation causes UTIs, it can help prevent UTIs in some people. In other words, it is used for PREVENTION of UTIs, not TREATMENT. Children may be advised not to take ranitidine, and you should talk to a medical professional first.
