Suggest Remedy For Bacterial Infection Shown By Urinalysis

I have had three uti with each a different bacteria. I ve been treated with three different antibiotics. I also have been treated with a-fib and had ablation. I take multaq and am worried about taking these antibiotics as they can interfere with multaq. I have no outward symptoms of uti, i.e. burning on urination, but urinalysis shows bacterial infection each time. What should I do?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. You should go for an urine culture and sensitivity. It will help to select the most sensitive antibiotics. Don't take antibiotics with out your treating doctor's advise. In that way you will be safe even though you are taking Multaq. Take antibiotic for the proper duration and do a culture of urine again after finisihing of antibiotic Taking cranberry juice and barley water is good also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
