Methenamine hippurate is taken twice daily whereas the mandelate formula can be taken 4 times daily. In my case, the mandelate is easier to tolerate. They both work the same way but, I think, with less irritation. I only take the mandelate twice daily.

My urologist started me on one pill a day. And so far that is working, it does cause some irritation but it’s better than a full-blown UTI. I am going to ask her about the Mandelate and see if that would work better for me. I am wondering if the Mandelate will not cause all this hair loss.
