Suggest Treatment For Urinary Tract Infection

I have a urinary tract infection. I cant reach my Dr but I have a prescription from a previous infection, Phenazopyrid to relive pain. I am allergic to Sulfa and the pharmacist is trying to reach my dr. Should I take the RX that I have for immediate relief? My pain is severe.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, as matter of fact diagnosis need to be confirmed because most of the time it may not be infection, but it could be just pain, better to get done the urine culture sensitivity test you have not mentioned your age and gender it was very much needed for right advise, condition varies from male to female hope this information helps.
