Utiva Ranks#1 for UTI Prevention by Canadian Physicians and Pharmacists in 2026 OTC Survey

PICKERING, ON, April 2, 2026 /CNW/ -- Utiva is named the #1 recommended brand for urinary tract infection (UTI) prevention by both physicians and pharmacists in Canada in the 2026 OTC Counselling and Recommendations Survey.

In 2026, Utiva achieved these top rankings in the UTI Prevention category:

• #1 Physician & #1 Pharmacist Recommended Brand – English Canada
• #1 Pharmacist Recommended Brand – French Canada

Conducted by EnsembleIQ, this annual OTC Counselling and Recommendations Survey gathers insights from Canadian healthcare professionals about over-the-counter products they recommend to patients. The survey is conducted through trusted publications including Pharmacy Practice + Business, Profession Santé, and The Medical Post.

One of Utiva's flagship products, Utiva UTI Control^®, is powered by ProPAC36^® to help prevent recurrent UTIs. "We're honoured to be recognized as Canada's #1 brand for UTI prevention by physicians and pharmacists," said Faraz Nomani, Co-Founder. "Unlike many cranberry supplements that do not verify PAC content using standards in clinical research, Utiva delivers the clinically studied dose to prevent UTIs - 36 mg of Proanthocyanidins (PACs) from cranberries measured by the DMAC/A2 method. This standard is referenced in clinical research, medical guidelines, and trusted by thousands of doctors and patients."

Utiva products are trusted by more than 20,000 doctors and are available in 5,000+ pharmacies and health food stores across Canada. Utiva is part of the portfolio developed by Szio+ Inc, whose mission is to build trusted brands using natural, clinically proven ingredients supported by education and research.
