Phenazopyridine is a pain reliever that affects the lower part of your urinary tract (bladder
and urethra).
Phenazopyridine is used to treat pain, burning, increased urination, and increased urge to
urinate. These symptoms are usually caused by infection, injury, surgery, catheter, or other
conditions that irritate the lower urinary tract.
Phenazopyridine will treat the symptoms of a urinary tract infection, but
this
medication does not treat the actual infection
. Take any antibiotic that your doctor
prescribes to treat your infection.
Phenazopyridine may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.
