Hello,

Thanks for writing back to me.

You should benefit from the antibiotic treatment. If there is recurrent UTI, then you may need to get a culture of the urine sample done to identify the specific antibiotics to which the infecting organism is sensitive and then get them prescribed.

Do not take any medicine on your own without your doctor's guidance.
