Brief Answer:
Usually given for 7-14 days in case of UTI

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone very carefully through your query. Augmentin (500+125) is usually one tablet given twice daily but can also be given thrice daily. The dose is to be taken for 7 days to 14 days in case of an UTI although dose for other infections is 3-5 days.

Hopefully that should help.

Let me know if I could help further.
