Suggest Treatment For Recurring Bouts Of Cystitis

Hi -I suffer from recurring bouts of cystitis. On a urologist's advice, I take a prophylactic dose of cefalexin for three months, alternating with Trimethropin for three months, which is what I am on now. However, this morning the unmistakeable symptoms of an acute arrack have returned. It is impossible for me to get to a doctor today, but I do have a Flucloxacillin capsules 500 mg at home. Would these help until I can get to a doctor tomorrow?
