Urine Test Showed WBC. Treated For UTI. Had Antibiotics, Vanzdaole And Bactrium. Are All Related?
Hello,
thanks for the query.
Vandazole gel contains the active ingredient known as metronidazole which is a drug effective in treatment of anaerobe bacteria, parasites and protozoa such as Giardia, Trichomoniasis etc. The vaginal cream in particular is used once to twice daily and is indicated for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis or Gardnerella vaginitis or nonspecific vaginitis. It is not effective in treating yeast vaginal infections (Candidal vaginosis).
As regards the urine analysis results, two white blood cells in urine in normal especially giving the fact that you recently had a UTI. It could be problematic in case you were still presenting with the symptoms of the UTI after completing the round of antibiotics.
Bactrim is effective in treatment of UTI and it has been widely use with acceptable effectiveness.
So, if you are not having re-occurrence of the symptoms of your UTI then the urine test results are just normal.
Hope this answers your query. If you have more query, i will be waiting to help.
Best regards.

Ok so should I take the vandazole? She prescribed based solely on the fact that I had 2 WBC in my urine analysis and low back pain
Hello,
thanks once more for the query.
The presence of two WBC in urine does not imply UTI and vandazole cream is not indicated for UTI. However, your doctor might have another reason for prescribing that since she is the one who saw you before and is following you up. So it will be better to discuss with her on why she prescribed it.
