Introduction About CRANTOP TABLET

Crantop Tablet is a non-antimicrobial agent which helps in promoting urinary tract health and may help in reducing the frequency of urinary tract infection. It contains Cranberry and D-Mannose as active ingredients which inhibit the causative bacteria to affect the urinary tract.
