How Can Urinary Tract Infection Be Treated?

Hello! Im on my 3rd day of taking Clarithromycin (OD) which my Doctor prescribed for 14days to treat my Sinusitis. Incidentally, my gf has been diagnosed as having UTI and was prescribed a different kind of antibiotics. We are sexually active and we suspect that I might have been infected with UTI as well. My question is, would the medicine that i m currently taking treat UTI too?
