A member asked:
Female burning urine. no pain in flank. just became symptomatic. anything other than cipro-to relieve infection. biggest concern is renal problems.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. : There are many antibiotics for urinary tract infections. See your physician to get a urine test and culture to first confirm the infection. More important than the specific drug is that it is tested with the infecting bacteria to ensure that the medication will work. You are correct to be concerned that an untreated UTI could lead to kidney infection.
