Augmentin: Amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin) may be prescribed to treat urinary tract infections. However, are you sure you have a urinary tract infection? Is the organism known? Please don't taken antibiotics unless directed to do so by a health care provider.

Augmentin: is a different class of antibiotic than Cipro, and is sometimes used to treat UTI. However, I assume you are not self-diagnosing and self-treating, so antibiotic selection should be managed by your physician.
