I also thought that...

And the reason, I think, is simple. Product names are usually nouns, not verbs. So when I see "treat", I think of "a treat", not the act of treating something.

It should be "UTI test + treatment".

You're right.

This is why you're probably not in marketing design.

"Maybe the company isn't from a country where English is the main language, that would explain the odd terminology," I thought.

Winx Health is an American women's health company based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Oh.

I initially thought it was a treat (like some sort of jellied lolly inside or something). However, the word "treat" could be used in a verb sense, as in "to treat". It is 100% not clear though.

I'd say there's no need to change the wording, just instead of saying

UTI test

+ treat

I'd say

UTI

test + treat

Would be clearer
