Your guide to effective urinary health treatments for your dog
Whether your pet’s urinary problems are due to a short-term issue or part of a recurring condition, virtual care on Vetster connects you with licensed veterinarians who can help you find relief quickly and safely.

Urinary issues in pets can have many different causes, including urinary tract infections (UTIs), bladder stones, age-related incontinence, behavioral marking, and chronic conditions like kidney disease or diabetes. Because these causes vary widely, treatment recommendations and costs do too. Your veterinarian will assess your pet’s symptoms, medical history, and risk factors to determine the most appropriate next steps.
Here are some general examples of potential treatment costs:
-
Antibiotics for UTIs usually cost $15–$75 per week
-
Prescription urinary diets range in price from $3–$5 per can or $30–$70 per bag
-
Incontinence medications typically cost $15–$30 per week
-
Anti-inflammatory medications usually range from $15–$30 per week
-
Pain relief medications are around $15–$30 per week

Getting help to manage your dog’s urinary health is simple with an online vet visit. Just book a virtual appointment through Vetster’s platform. A licensed vet will assess your dog’s symptoms and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
Many urinary issues, like frequent urination or mild accidents, can be discussed in a virtual appointment, but some signs point to a serious emergency that needs immediate in-person care. If your pet is straining to urinate but not producing any urine, vocalizing in pain, or has a swollen or firm belly, seek emergency care right away. These can be signs of a urinary obstruction, a life-threatening condition that is especially common in male cats. Other general emergency symptoms include bloody urine, vomiting, weakness, collapse, pale gums, or signs of severe discomfort. If your pet seems unable to rest, is frequently posturing to urinate without success, or appears distressed, don’t wait — head to an emergency clinic immediately. If your pet’s symptoms are subtle or unclear, a virtual care appointment can help you get expert guidance from home, making it easier to decide whether emergency care is needed and how urgently to seek it. When in doubt, it’s safest to head to an emergency clinic.
If appropriate and legally permitted in your location, your veterinarian may prescribe medication to support your pet’s treatment. Your Vetster veterinarian will work with you to understand your pet’s symptoms and recommend personalized next steps.
Treatment costs depend on your pet’s size, the specific diagnosis, and the duration of care. Some urinary issues may resolve in a few days, while others — like those related to bladder stones, kidney disease, or hormonal imbalances — may require long-term management. Because there are so many variables, it’s difficult to estimate the exact cost of treatment without a veterinary evaluation. The best way to understand your pet’s care needs and related costs is to speak with a veterinarian. Once your Vetster vet has made a diagnosis, you can ask for a cost estimate and collaborate on treatment options that align with your budget and your pet’s health.
After your veterinarian prescribes them, you can order medications for related urinary health concerns directly through VetsterRx (where available) or fill the prescription at a pet pharmacy of your choice.
