I'm using altacef 500g to clear a uti how long till symptoms subside? its my third day on 1>< 2 schedule

UTI.: An appropriate antibiotic will typically clear the urine after one dose. If you are still symptomatic three days after the initiation of this antibiotic, perhaps the bacterium in question is resistant to it. You might need to change in your antibiotic or formal urinalysis and urine culture.
