thank you for asking querry.
As for stomach infection zeprox is good choice.
But now you are saying she is having urinary tract infection and you must treat it.
What are the urine reports if any,and also get one usg done if urine reports are suggestive.
though augmentin is not good choice for urinary tract infection.
start antibiotics only after urine report of microscopy and culture.
hope this is helpful.
