Took cipro for uti - no improvement in symptoms. got a urinalysis and nitrites present - now on bactrim. culture came back neg but i still have sympto?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Culture & sensitivit: UTI very common but if u use frequently antibiotics as Cipro antibiotic resistance can develop and culture + sensitivity important to pick right choice to treat particular bacteria. Also drink plenty of water, cranberry juice, maintain good hygiene and proper nutrition . Ok to use Pyridium x 2-3 days to relieve symptoms. If no better see MD!
