Suggest Treatment For UTI While On D-Mannose

Thank you. I am experiencing symptoms of UTI and am using D-Mannose supplements. I have antibiotics for my frequent infections, but am trying to avoid it. I feel like I may be getting a handle on it by taking 500 mg D-Mannose with Crab Actin every few hours (starting this morning) I ve probably taken it 7 times so far. Is there a danger of overdose?
