Symptomatic relief of pain, burning, urgency, frequency, and other discomforts resulting from irritation of the lower urinary tract mucosa caused by infection, trauma, surgery, endoscopic procedures, or the passage of sounds or catheters.

Use should not delay definitive diagnosis and treatment of cause; not a substitute for specific surgery or anti-infective therapy.

Used in combination with appropriate anti-infective agents for initial treatment (first 2 days) of uncomplicated urinary tract infections when pain, burning, or urgency relief is needed. However, there is lack of evidence that such combinations provide greater benefit than an anti-infective agent alone after 2 days; continue treatment after 2 days with anti-infective agent alone.

Also may be used for self-medication for the symptomatic relief of minor pain, urgency, frequency, and burning on urination.
