YOU MIGHT HAVE NOT: Seen the full effects yet. It is not unusual to still see leuks in the urine soon after a complete course of antibiotics. Just push water intake, stay on avo and monitor symptoms closely.

Not likely: I recommend you follow up with your md to repeat a urine dip in the office and a urine culture. Typically, urinary tract infections need antibiotics to clear them.
