I've had a uti for 2 weeks now. my dr gave me macrobid (28) to take twice daily and my uti is still not gone im not sexually active is this normal?

Urine culture: You should have a urine culture to make sure there is not a bacteria resistant to macrobid. If one was done at the time of your diagnosis of UTI then speak with your doctor to determine if you need a different antibiotic.
