Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Harshita's Response

Hi,

1. To prevent recurrent UTI, one must be completely hydrated all the time. Ask your wife to take lots of fluids (say 3-4 litres) in a day.
2. She can change the medicine to cefuroxime instead of martifur.
3. Take citralka syrup.
4. All these could be due to the side effects of the drug she is taking.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harshita, Infectious Diseases Specialist
