Burning urination that you have is mostly due to UTI and not related to Airborne medication .It could be a coincidence .

Get your routine urine test and urine culture done to find out the organisms causing this
infection and antibiotics to which they are sensitive to.

Take broad spectrum antibiotics like Cefixime along with urinary antiseptic like
Nitrofurantoin twice daily and urine alkaliser thrice daily.Later on switch on to appropriate antibiotics as per culture report.
