Suggest Treatment For UTI

Hello, I m Abby. I have UTI because I m experiencing some of the symptoms (burning sensation while urinating, frequent urge to urinate, cloudy urine, abdominal pains). I took one ciprotab 500mg tablet but I vomited after a few hours because of nausea. Please is there any other drug that is milder, equally effective and which I can purchase over the counter you can recommend? I am on vacation abroad and it ll cost a fortune to visit the hospital here because I don t have insurance . Thank you.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have urinary tract infection. You should go for urine routine and microscopic examination. If needed go for culture and sensitivity test. Then you should take antibiotics accordingly. Levofloxacin or norfloxacin can be helpful. It is prescription based drug so consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Antibiotics are not over the counter drugs so you need to consult doctor. Ibuprofen or paracetamol can be taken to relieve pain. Drink plenty of water.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
