Good evening ma'am,
The pharmacist can prescribe antibiotics for a UTI, but only if:
You have received a prescription for a UTI in the past 12 months;
You do not have a fever;
You are not pregnant;
Your current symptoms are similar to symptoms of your previous UTI.
If you "fit" into these criteria, stop by the pharmacy!

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
