I got a uti a couple months ago and i have one again. can i use the same antibiotics i took to treat this one?

Antibiotics: You should not have any antibiotics left from the previous episode. It is important to take the medications exactly as directed otherwise the infection may not be adequately treated leading to a repeat infection. This may the case here now.
