How to treat burning and frequent urination due to UTI?

Question

Hi doctor,

My 31-year-old wife got a UTI and hematuria last year, which resolved after medication. Today, she started having UTI symptoms like frequent urination with burning and pain.

Please suggest some medicines.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

She needs to get these basic tests, which are an ultrasound of the abdomen, a urine routine and culture, a CBC (complete blood count), and serum creatinine. For the time being, I suggest you try taking the medications for the urinary tract infection (UTI) which are, tablet Niftran (Nitrofurantoin) 100 mg, morning and evening for seven days, tablet Pan (Pantoprazole) 40 in the morning for seven days, and syrup Cital (Disodium hydrogen citrate) 10 ml, morning and evening in a glass of water for 15 days.

Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and start taking the medicines after their consent. Start the above medicines after getting the urine sample, not before that.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

If feeding is going on, then you should stop Niftran. I suggest taking the tablet Augmentin (a combination of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid) 375 mg, in the morning, afternoon, and evening.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
