68yr parkinson was in icu(22 days)for treating sepsis.after 15days urine report >rbc 2-3/hpf, pus 20-25 epithelial1-2. is ceftum 500 will cure it?

Uti: A second generation cephalosporin like ceftum would be a little narrower spectrum that i would use in an ICU patient with a neurodegenerative condition in for sepsis. I assume since there for sepsis he is also on other antibiotics as well which would make the case better for ceftum.
