Hi, I currently have a urinary tract infection. I am on antibiotics and I am taking my last dose tonight. I still have pain in my lower abdomen and I urinate very often.

Hello Mrs,

Unfortunately, if the symptoms persist for more than 3 days after starting the antibiotic, you will need to see your doctor again to reassess the diagnosis and treatment.

Sincerely,

Tom Samaha, pharmacist
