A member asked:
Is it safe or needed to take macrobid with levaquin (levofloxacin) for a uti?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
UTI: You need not normally take both antibiotics, only the one or other. If you had a Urinalysis with C&S, the bacteria would be known as well as what antibiotic was specific for treating the infection. Best wishes.
