Vitamin Supplementation and Urinary Tract Infection in Children: A Narrative Review

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most prevalent infections among pediatric patients, making them a very common type of infection. Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of vitamin supplements as supplementary therapies. However, the existing research in this field appears to be fragmented and lacking coherence. Thus, this study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the current status of vitamin supplements' role in UTI treatment. We reviewed articles in PubMed and Google Scholar from 1950 to 2022. Vitamins C, E, and A have shown promising results as adjuvant therapies in UTI.
