Utipro® Plus AF: A Clinically Proven Antibiotic-Free Approach to Urinary Tract Infection Management

European Association of Urology (EAU) Guidelines on Urological Infections.1

Due to the global rise in antimicrobial resistance (AMR), there is a growing emphasis on antibiotic stewardship and more judicious prescribing practices. The European Association of Urology (EAU) and other clinical practice guidelines recommend the consideration of antibiotic-free therapies for the management of both acute and recurrent cystitis.1-5

The 2025 EAU Guidelines on Urological Infections state that…

A combination of xyloglucan, hibiscus and propolis is effective in relieving acute cystitis symptoms and preventing recurrence1supported by the highest level of evidence – 1a*

How does Utipro® Plus AF work?

Utipro green line

Xyloglucan-Gelose

Xyloglucan is a mucoprotectant of plant origin.10Its fibrous composition makes it resistant to digestion.  When it arrives in the large intestine, its viscoelastic properties allow it to form a protective layer over the surface of the intestinal mucosa, reinforcing the integrity of the intestinal barrier.This reduces the adhesion of uropathogenic bacteria to the intestinal wall, which in turn reduces growth and proliferation of bacteria in the intestine.10The overall effect reduces transmission of bacteria outside of the intestine which may prevent  infection of the urinary tract.10

Hibiscus & Propolis

Hibiscus, a type of plant and Propolis, a compound produced by bees both contain organic acids that mildly decrease urinary pH in the bladder.10Infected urine contains large amounts of nitrite. Acidification of nitrite results in the formation of nitric oxide (NO) which creates an unfavourable environment for bacterial growth, helping to eliminate bacteria and control symptoms of cystitis.10

Why breaking the cycle of UTIs can start with your intestine?

The majority of uncomplicated UTIs originate from bacteria in the large intestine, making it an important target for the prevention of recurrent infections.10
Utipro Plus AF is currently the only non antibiotic treatment approach that effectively targets the source of infection in the intestine by creating a protective layer that reduces the growth of bacteria and their subsequent ascent into the bladder.10

Demonstrated efficacy in published clinical trials and published scientific papers for both acute and recurrent urinary tract infections.
