  • Hey everyone!
    Link to Azo video: • Does Azo Treat Urinary...
    In this video I talk about the three most common antibiotics used to treat a urinary tract infection (UTI). UTIs are a very common bacterial infection, especially amongst women, but men can also get infected as well. Treatment is relatively easy if the right antibiotics are chosen.
    Hope you guys enjoyed watching my video!

    i had fever for 20 days where i was on liquid diet because doctor recommended me to..
    after when i recovered when i use to pee it use to burn in the end and few drops of blood would come out i visited Doctor he said its happening because of heat and dehydration you had because of fever then he gave me an injection and some tablets after that the blood stopped coming...but now while urinating it still just burns and then i feel okay...
    what might be the reason?
    Doctor please review this and reply.... 🙏🙏

      Bactrim is a broad use antibiotic. It can be used for other infections in addition to UTI. You can still have a UTI without pain or feeling uncomfortable while urinating.

    I am honestly mad we cant buy medication we need over the counter without a doctor. I have a reoccuring UTI problem once a year, I do not wish to visit a doctor for a prescription when I know what I need. I am very frustrated I cannot afford health insurance to even see a doctor, troubling times.

    • @pharmedgy
      @pharmedgy  Před 2 lety +7

      I am sorry you are dealing with a reoccurring UTI. I know it must be frustrating to constantly need a prescription to get a medication, but it is important to keep in mind that the human body is dynamic and many factors can change. A doctor would need to reevaluate the situation each time to give the best possible care/treatment. For example, what if constantly taking the same antibiotic over and over for a UTI causes antibiotic resistance? That might create a bigger problem, which is why the barrier to prescription medications are created. Hope that helps and hope you see a doctor to talk about a more long term solution for your UTI. Let me know if you have any questions.

      It depends on your prescription directions, but Cipro is usually dosed twice daily. So most ideal is every 12 hours. Also it is recommended to have plenty of water with Cipro. What bad things have you heard from Cipro?
