Bearberry (Arctostaphylos uva ursi) has been used medicinally for centuries and is sometimes used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) and cystitis:
Urinary tract infections: Bearberry leaves are used to treat mild, recurrent UTIs, such as burning when urinating or frequent urination. Bearberry contains chemicals like arbutin and hydroquinone that help fight infection.
Diuretic: Bearberry leaves are sometimes used as a diuretic.
Astringent: Bearberry contains tannins that help shrink mucous membranes, which can reduce inflammation and fight infection.
Antioxidant: Bearberry leaves contain phytochemicals that are strong antioxidants.
Bearberry can be toxic, and more evidence is needed to support its use for UTIs. Side effects of bearberry include:
Tinnitus, Allergic reactions, Liver damage, Kidney damage, Breathing difficulties, Eye problems, and Seizures.
Bearberry is also known by the brand names arbutin, mountain cranberry, and uva ursi.
