Posted on Mon, 27 Jan 2014
Question: I now have a bladder infection. Is that because of the medications I have been taking? And I am no longer taking the griseofulvin. Can I take terrimycin for the bladder infection. I am on my second day of over the counter AZO. Will the bladder infection go away on its own?
