A member asked:
Im being treated for a uti. how long should i be off antibiotics before should they recheck the culture?

Depends: If you do not have any symptoms there may not be a need to re do the culture. If it needs to be repeated, one to two weeks after stopping the antibiotics would be appropriate.
