UTI: You treat UTI with antibiotics, stay hydrated, and if recurs get urine culture to determine causative agent and its sensitivity to specific drugs. Good luck.

UTI treatment: Tmp/smx commonly known as bactrim, (sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim) is usually effective. You should have a urine culture set up to identify if the infection is due to a strain that is resistant.
