I have a UTI and bladder infection and am on my second round of cipro in a month with only the first one helping then quickly the infection returned now on second round. What other antibiotic can I take that would help? I have had stricture surgeries X 4 am a 60 YO male and after my last surgery I was perscribed clindamycin which seemed to help.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I suggest you try Clindamycin again if you have not sent urine to be cultured, in which case antibiotic therapy should be aimed at the specific bacteria.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
