Hi, The drug prescribed for you is most appropriate for urinary tract infection.
As you are on steroids there will be mild immuno-suppression, hence recurrent UTI is a common scenario.
I would suggest
To maintain adequate hygiene, so as to prevent
To get clear of infections with antibiotics as soon as possible.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
