I am wondering what the conditions are for a pharmacist to prescribe a treatment for a urinary tract infection.

Question

Hello, since this afternoon I have been experiencing symptoms of urinary tract infection. Hello, is it true that if our last urinary tract infection was less than 6 months ago, the pharmacist cannot prescribe a treatment? Thanks in advance!

Good morning, ma'am, If you have had a urinary tract infection in the last 5 years and received treatment for it, I invite you to contact your pharmacist for a short consultation to evaluate the necessity and possibility of prescribing a treatment. Otherwise, if your symptoms persist for more than 3 days, you should consult a physician. Sincerely, Tom Samaha, pharmacist It is indeed a factor of exclusion and a doctor should be consulted in this case.
