BrandStar Entertainment's The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television will offer viewers comprehensive information about urinary tract infections (UTIs), the most common bacterial ailment in women of childbearing age. The show will feature Dr. Sean Kenniff, who will discuss the diagnosis, pain treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections. The segment will air May 15th and June 15th, or you can view it anytime at www.thebalancingact.com/azo. The Balancing Act TV Show airs weekday mornings at 7AM ET/PT.
“With AZO products, you can be in control of your urinary tract health,” Dr. Kenniff says.
Every year, he notes, 11 percent of American women have at least one such infection, and up to 60 percent will develop a UTI some time in their lives. A third of these women will have a recurrence. “Furthermore, each year, about 250,000 women develop kidney infections and 100,000 are hospitalized when symptoms are present.”
Unchecked, UTI symptoms can cause intense pain, burning and urgency. “Many women perceive the pain as unbearable and are unable to work when symptoms are present,” explains Dr. Kenniff.
That’s the time a visit to the doctor is a must.
AZO has a full line of products for UTI, including AZO Test Strips, a “fast and easy at-home UTI test, the same test doctors use,” Dr. Kenniff says. “AZO Standard Maximum Strength is a pain reliever specifically for UTI that can relieve most common symptoms in as little as 20 minutes.”
For prevention, he said, AZO Cranberry, tablets with Vitamin C and a probiotic – “help maintain a healthy urinary tract.”
“So many women can benefit from this brief education on the symptoms and treatments for UTI,” says Doug Campbell, Executive VP of Programming for BrandStar Entertainment, the producers of The Balancing Act TV Show. “We appreciate the important information.”
