Brief Answer:
There is no harm in taking D Manose

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query .
Based on the facts and reports that you have posted you seem to have recurrent episodes of UTI due to Enlarged Prostate with Chronic Prostatitis and taking Silodol once daily .

In view of getting UTI repeatedly with significant post void residual urine of volume of 45 mlI would suggest you to get endoscopic resection of prostate (TURP) done to resolve the issue permanently .

As regards your query regarding taking d Manose for UTI there is no harm in taking it however I would state that there is no scientific evidence to prove the efficacy of the d Manosse .

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions, I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.
Dr.Patil.
