I had this problem 30 years ago. My doctor recommended cranberry juice or pills. Been using cranberry supplements since then. It took about 6 months to eliminate the infections. I haven't needed to see a doctor since then. I can't tell you a recommended dosage. I've been using Nature Made for a long time. These are 450 mg. Anyway, works great for me. Good luck.
