AZO Emergency Kit in a Stylish Vera Bradley Cosmetic Bag Giveaway!



Have you ever heard of the AZO line of products before? I was not familiar with them until a few years ago when I was on vacation with my family. On our way home, I came down with a Urinary Tract Infection. Needless to say, I was miserable! The symptoms that go along with a UTI are no fun, and riding in the car on the 20+ hour drive home would have been next to impossible had I not found AZO! Thankfully, it helped to relieve the symptoms until I got home and was able to see a doctor. If I was ever in the same situation again, I personally would turn to AZO in a heartbeat! Of course, it's always a good idea to talk with your doctor to see if these products are right for you.


Little did I know at the time, but AZO is the only over-the-counter brand with the most comprehensive line of products to diagnose a UTI, treat UTI symptoms, and maintain a healthy urinary tract, as well as provide all natural relief and prevention of yeast infection symptoms and fast, immediate relief from feminine itch. After what happened to me on vacation, I think being prepared and having access to relief is very important. That's why I was happy when asked if I'd like to host an AZO Emergency Kit giveaway. As someone who has used AZO products in the past, I was excited to help get the word out about the importance of women having products on hand that can help when dealing with a UTI, yeast infection or feminine itch.

I received an AZO Emergency Kit (which is exactly like the one that one lucky reader will receive) that contained:
  • AZO Standard Maximum Strength
  • AZO Cranberry w/Immune boosting probiotic & Vitamin C to help maintain health
  • AZO Itch Relief Cream
  • AZO Itch Relief Medicated Wipes
  • AZO Test Strips - Urinary Tract Infection Test
  • AZO Yeast - All Natural Tablets for Yeast Infection Symptoms
  • Large Vera Bradley Cosmetic Bag
Some might think that these topics are a bit embarrassing, but did you know that they are more common than some of us might think?! It has been estimated that up to 60% of women will experience the discomfort of a UTI at least once in their lives, that 75% of women will experience at least one yeast infection in their lives, and that most women experience some form of vaginitis at least once in their lifetime. With it being so common, I can see why having all of these products on hand, at home and/or while traveling, is a good idea. Being able to tote it around in a cute and stylish Vera Bradley cosmetic bag doesn't hurt either, right?! The quality of this bag is great and the size is just perfect! It's plastic-lined in soft, brightly patterned, quilted cotton.

Buy It:
AZO products are available for purchase separately at local pharmacies, discount retailers or grocery stores (in the pain relief or feminine care section; AZO CRANBERRY® may also be found in the vitamin/supplement aisle).

Win It: One lucky reader is going to win an AZO Emergency Kit just like the one I received (ARV $75). The kit includes a full line of AZO products (Standard Maximum Strength, Cranberry, Test Strips, Yeast, Itch Relief Maximum Strength analgesic wipes and topical analgesic cream) AND a large Vera Bradley Cosmetic Bag.
