Hello
No response in UTI may be due to inappropriate antibiotics,
You may need proper clinical examination and routine investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,random blood sugar,renal function test,Urine culture and sensitivity,ultrasound of abdomen.
You may need to take antibiotics based on culture and sensitivity report.
You should drink plenty of water.
I also prescribe alkalizing syrup to my patients.
Get well soon.
Take Care
