After meeting with the doc on this application. can i get prescribed an antibiotic for my uti, and possible kidney infection, for 2 months or longer? i know i need a longer term antibiotic because it comes right back once i complete my 3day- 2wks?

Not on the free HealthTap platform. You will need either a follow up on the paid portion or to see a Urology specialist in case you believe you have a kidney infection. Antibiotics are to be used for limited amounts of time per guidelines and misuse or overuse may result in creating multi drug resistant strains.
