A member asked:

Why do i still have symptoms of cystitis if i have 4 days taking the antibiotics that the urine culture said the e coli was susceptive to?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Reconsult physician: Uti is not always sucessfully treated and there are other causes of bladder symptoms besides urinary infection. If symptoms do not resolve after several days of antibiotics a pcp or gyn should be consulted.
