Suggest Treatment For Kidney Infection As Auro-Cefuroxime Causing Pain And Nauseated

I was diagnosed with a kidney infection four days ago and have been on Auro-Cefuroxime. The doctor at the hospital told me that my white blood cell count isn t elevated, so it seems like my body isn t trying to fight the infection. I have been in imense pain and have been feeling very nauseated over the past week. Should I go back to the hospital to have my system flushed through an I.V.? What should I do?

Hi, welcome to HCM.
Urine infection require evaluation of site of infection and organism.
Basic urine report with culture, CBC ,S.creatinine, and sonography will tell us about it.
Nausea is common with urine infection.
Kidney infection usually require iv antibiotics. So do above test. Start iv if nausea persists.
maintain adequate hydration.
I think this would be helpful to you.
