Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter is 20 years old and her urine test shows pus cells 20, occult blood trace. She is been prescribed antibiotic, she is resistant to most antibiotics therefore the doctor prescribed her antibiotic the one given to ladies in their pregnancy. Is it safe to take. Will her kidney get affected in this case.
Name of the prescribed antibiotic not mentioned however it appears to be safe for the kidneys. Amoxicillin is commonly prescribed to treat urine infection during pregnancy which is considered to be safe. Assuming that your daughter also takes amoxicillin there is nothing to worry it does not cause any harmful effects on the kidneys.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
