    Comment:
    I have had good results using this pill--does prevent urinary infections. Over the 3 years I have been taking this, I have gotten a few breakthrough infections---my own fault. I got "sloppy" on occasion and forgot to take an evening dose. Two doses/day are necessary. I learned the hard way.

    started taking this generic drug 2 days ago and noticed a nasty metallic taste and after taste. Called pharmacy and urologist for further information. Had been taking mandelamine with no problem but it was pulled from market.
