Depends on the cause: Typical urinary tract infections are rare in males of your age (35). Prostatitis? Nongonococcal urethritis (NGU)? Other problem. The best antibiotic depends on the exact cause; and if you do have a UTI, on testing to see which antibiotic will work best against he bacteria causing your infection. Speak with the doctor who is treating you.
