I was prescribed cipro and trimethoprim at the same time. for uti. never beed prescribed 2 antibiotics at the same time. each to be taken 1 pill every 12 hours. is it normal practice? can i even take them together or its some kind of mistake?

It is unusual. yes you can take them together. This can occur if there are two different type of organisms grown in your urine each sensitive to a different antibiotic. The best person to ask is your prescriber. Suggest you see a Urologist next time
