How much should someone drink when they have a catheter?

Warm realistic scene of a black female caregiver in a navy 00072b tunic with e51974 piping sitting beside an older white male in his living room both smiling as they look over catheter care instructions together showing reassurance and trust in a homely setting.

Unless a doctor has advised a fluid restriction, many adults with a catheter are encouraged to drink around 1.5 to 2 litres of fluid spread across the day. This helps keep urine flowing and reduces the chance of blockages and infections. Water is ideal, but diluted squash, herbal teas and other preferred drinks can all contribute. It’s important to tailor this to individual health needs, especially for people with heart or kidney conditions. Our carers can provide regular drinks, support with light meal and drink preparation, and gently remind people to sip throughout the day. We can also help plan fluid intake around outings or bedtime, so you feel comfortable and confident, while still keeping your bladder and kidneys as healthy as possible.
