How Cranpac Tablet works

Cranberry Extract supplies a nutrient that helps protect body cells from everyday oxidative wear and supports normal immune function. D-mannose makes the urine less acidic, which eases burning and discomfort while passing urine.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, stomach pain and, with some minerals, damage over the longer term. It can disturb the body's salt balance and cause stomach upset. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

• Metallic taste
• Loose motions

Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Safety advice for Cranpac Tablet

Warnings and precautions

A supplement supports a normal diet; it does not prevent or treat infection. Zinc on an empty stomach commonly causes nausea — take it with food. Very high doses of vitamin A over a long period can be harmful, particularly in pregnancy. Do not take several products containing the same nutrient at once; the totals add up. This eases the symptoms; it does not treat a urinary infection. See a doctor if you have fever, back or flank pain, blood in the urine, or symptoms lasting more than a couple of days — an infection needs an antibiotic. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Tell your doctor if you have kidney disease, heart failure or are on a salt-restricted diet; these preparations carry a sodium or potassium load.

Do not take Cranpac if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with significant kidney disease or a high blood potassium level, without medical advice.

Interactions with other medicines

Zinc and other minerals reduce the absorption of some antibiotics — separate them by a few hours. Tell your doctor if you take a blood thinner, as high-dose vitamin E can add to its effect. Changing the acidity of urine affects how some medicines are cleared — tell your doctor what you take.

How to store Cranpac Tablet

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Expert advice for Cranpac Tablet

Take it with food to reduce nausea. A varied diet remains the best source of these nutrients. Drink two to three litres of water a day unless your doctor has restricted fluids. Do not delay seeing a doctor if symptoms persist.
