Dear Sir;
I was suffering from chronic UTI; During urine culture and gram stain test;
Foll. Bacteria’s found 1) klebsiella pneumonia ; and 2) staphylococcus aureus;
For which doctor gave foll. Antibiotics for 10 days;
1) L-CIN 750 ; once a day
2) augmentin 625; twice a day
3) Doxy-1 ; once a day;
Total for 10 days;
But after stopping of course after 2 weeks;
Sign of UTI (i.e. Pus coming from urethra ) again reoccurring;
Doctor asked to take Zospar(200mg) and Doxy-1 for 15 days?;
Also I have undergone for kidney stone treatment previously;
Is this period and treatment is enough to remove UTI completely?;
Please guide me
I have gone through your query and my answer is as follows.
The treatment given by your doctor is right and it was suposed to get rid of the infection.But in some cases the bacteria present in the urinary tract might get resistant to the antibiotics and for this reason other type of antibiotics are used and for longer time.
An antibiogram would be great in your case to determine the antibiotics that can fight this infection. Anyway I am sure that the second dose of antibiotics will treat you.
Meanwhile: -have plenty of water -have fresh fruits and vegetables -use chamomile tea or rose tea -don't hold your urine for long
Wish you good health.
If you have any other question,don't hesitate to contact me.
