Detailed Answer:
Hello there, welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service...
I've gone through your query in details...
I can understand the concerns for your father...

Since he's taken the Norflox 400 at 9 pm yesterday, he can start taking the Norflox TZ from 8 am today. Please note it's generally given as a twice-daily regimen, so he can take it at 8 am followed by 8 pm.

Do ensure to drink plenty of water before and after taking the antibiotic as well as throughout the day...

Let me know if I can assist you further...

Best Wishes...

Take Care
Kind Regards

Brief Answer:
drinking adequate amounts of water is the biggest home remedy...

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back,

Drinking enough water is the biggest home remedy to reduce discomfort during urination.

Additionally, he may take cranberry juice daily for the next few days, it'll provide some relief. If there's burning sensation also, then Syrup Sodium-Potassium Citrate (eg. Syp Ciralka 10ml twice daily after food) can be taken for a week.

It's necessary not to take this medicine with milk or yogurt as it decreases the drug absorption. It can be simply taken either an hour before the meal or around two hours after a meal. Just make sure to drink a lot of water before and after taking this, that'll do.

Hope this is clear now.

Take Care
Kind Regards
