Suggest Treatment For Fever And Cold While Taking Medicine For UTI
Hi, I have been battling a urinary tract infection for two months. Was given imidazole (dosage of 4) without success. I recently did a urine culture and was placed on nitrofurantoin for 7days. This is the third day and I m down with a fever and cold. Every time I take the drug. I feel stomach upset. I m confused because I don t want to develop resistance to any antibiotic again.

Hello,
The fever and cold can be related to the urinary tract infection. I recommend to take na anti inflammatory medication such as Acetaminophen to relieve the symptoms. I also suggest to continue the antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor. I recommend to drink liquids and especially cranberry juice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
