    Avoid taking antacids and eating dairy or citrus fruits while taking methenamine hippurate. They can make the medication less effective. Drink plenty of fluids while taking methenamine hippurate. Do not stop taking the medication, even if you start to feel better. Your infection may not be completely gone, even though your symptoms have improved.
