Essential oils can have antimicrobial and antifungal properties, fighting infection. Some essential oils may also offer additional benefits, such as reducing inflammation, relieving unpleasant symptoms, and supporting the immune system.
They can be used as adjuncts to complement antibiotic treatment and to support healing and recovery of the urinary system.
NUTRAMICIN URINARY® can be used as an adjunct in the treatment of urinary tract infections in combination with antibiotics.
Oregano essential oil is known for its powerful antimicrobial properties. These properties are due to its rich content of bioactive compounds, especially carvacrol and thymol.
In the case of urinary tract infections, oregano essential oil may have the following benefits:
- Antimicrobial action: Oregano essential oil can effectively fight bacteria, including those that cause urinary tract infections, such as E. coli. The active substances in oregano oil can help inhibit the growth and multiplication of bacteria, thus helping to fight the infection.
- Antifungal properties: Urinary tract infections can also be caused by fungi, such as Candida. Oregano essential oil has antifungal properties and can help inhibit the growth of fungi and reduce the symptoms associated with fungal infections.
- Supporting the immune system: Oregano essential oil also has immunostimulating properties, which means it can support the immune system to fight infections. By strengthening the immune system, the body can become more effective at fighting urinary tract infections.
A study published in the journal Frontiers in Microbiology in 2020 highlighted the effectiveness of oregano essential oil in inhibiting the growth of bacteria associated with urinary tract infections, including Escherichia coli and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Oregano oil has also been shown to prevent the formation of bacterial biofilms, which can promote resistance to antibiotic treatment in urinary tract infections.
Tea Tree essential oil also has strong antimicrobial properties, making it useful in relieving urinary tract infections.
- Antimicrobial action: Tea tree essential oil contains compounds, such as terpinen-4-ol, that have antimicrobial properties. These compounds can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, including those that cause urinary tract infections.
- Antifungal properties: UTIs can also be caused by fungi, such as Candida. Tea tree essential oil has antifungal properties and can help reduce the symptoms associated with fungal infections.
- Reduce inflammation: UTIs can cause inflammation in the urinary tract. Tea tree essential oil has anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce the inflammation and discomfort associated with urinary tract infections.
- Supporting the immune system: Tea tree essential oil can stimulate the immune system, helping the body fight urinary tract infections. By strengthening the immune system, it can increase the body’s resistance to infections.
A study published in the Journal of Hospital Infection evaluated the effectiveness of tea tree essential oil in preventing bacterial biofilm formation in urinary catheters. The study found that tea tree oil demonstrated antimicrobial activity against biofilm-forming bacteria and reduced biofilm formation on catheter surfaces, potentially preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Tea tree essential oil has also shown effectiveness in urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases.
Thyme essential oil has strong antimicrobial and antifungal properties, which make it useful in relieving urinary tract infections.
- Antimicrobial action: Thyme essential oil contains compounds, such as thymol and carvacrol, which have antimicrobial properties. These compounds can help fight bacteria, including those that cause urinary tract infections, such as E. coli. By inhibiting the growth of bacteria, thyme oil can help relieve urinary tract infections.
- Antifungal properties: Thyme oilThyme essential oil also has antifungal properties and can help fight urinary tract infections caused by fungi, such as Candida. This can help inhibit the growth of fungi and reduce the symptoms associated with fungal infections.
- Anti-inflammatory properties: Urinary tract infections can cause inflammation in the urinary tract. Thyme essential oil contains compounds with anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce inflammation and relieve the discomfort associated with urinary tract infections.
- Supports the immune system: Thyme essential oil can support the immune system, having immunostimulating properties. By strengthening the immune system, it can help the body fight urinary tract infections more effectively.
Also, another study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of thyme essential oil against antibiotic-resistant strains of Escherichia coli. The study found that thyme oil exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against these resistant strains, suggesting its potential use as an adjuvant in the treatment of recurrent urinary tract infections.
Clove essential oil also has beneficial properties in improving urinary tract infections
- Antimicrobial action: clove essential oil contains a compound called eugenol, which has strong antimicrobial properties. These properties can help inhibit the growth of bacteria and prevent them from multiplying in the urinary tract. Thus, clove oil can help fight urinary tract infections caused by bacteria.
- Antifungal properties: Urinary tract infections can also be caused by fungi, such as Candida. Clove essential oil has antifungal properties and can help inhibit the growth of fungi responsible for urinary tract infections. By fighting the growth of fungi, clove oil can help reduce symptoms and improve fungal infections.
- Anti-inflammatory properties: Urinary tract infections can cause inflammation and discomfort in the urinary tract. Clove essential oil has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms associated with urinary tract infections.
- Supports the immune system: Clove essential oil has a stimulating effect on the immune system. By strengthening the immune system, it can help the body fight urinary tract infections and prevent their recurrence.
A study published in the Journal of Applied Microbiology in 2017 investigated the antimicrobial activity of clove essential oil against bacteria that cause urinary tract infections, such as Escherichia coli. The research concluded that clove oil exhibited antimicrobial activity against the bacteria tested, but it was noted that its effectiveness may vary depending on the concentration and bacterial strain.
Other preclinical and experimental studies have also suggested the potential antimicrobial activity of clove essential oil against bacteria and fungi associated with urinary tract infections.
The effectiveness of clove oil against E. coli suggests that it could be used as an alternative therapy to antibiotic treatment. Based on preliminary studies, clove essential oil has been shown to have a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against E. coli strains. 4.
