: A repeat urine culture is recommended, since she may have a partially treated UTI. Consider an allergic reaction if she is on oral medication. Use a probiotic after discussion with your PCP during the use of antibiotics. This may help to reduce the occurrence of a yeast infection. Please see your pediatrician or pediatric urgent care.
