About this active substance

Dry extract from bearberry leaf is a natural supplement mainly used to support urinary tract health. The main active substance, arbutin, has antiseptic properties and helps fight mild urinary tract infections. The extract may help reduce inflammation and relieve unpleasant symptoms such as burning or discomfort during urination.

The extract is usually taken as capsules or tablets, according to the instructions on the packaging or as advised by a doctor. It is important not to exceed the recommended dose and not to use it for long periods without medical advice.

Side effects may include digestive disorders, nausea, or allergic reactions. In rare cases, excessive consumption may affect liver or kidney function. Any unusual symptoms should be reported to the doctor.

Bearberry leaf extract can be helpful as an adjunct in urinary infections, but it does not replace antibiotic treatment when necessary. Consulting a doctor is recommended before use, especially for people with chronic conditions or those taking other treatments.
