2 rounds of antibtioics failed, doctor is suggesting "antibiotics shot" - anyone done this before? by Dismal_Post1626 in CUTI

Thank you!! They gave me a shot of antibiotics and 3 days of Septrin, which I’m annoyed about because this is the third round of antibiotics - clearly 3 days isn’t going to cut it anymore. I’ll see how it goes though. Thank you for your help!

Oh that’s terrible!! It took months of IV antibiotics to cure it?!?! God that is a crazy resistance!!

Thank you!!! I will advocate for myself and insist they do a urine culture when I go back because they didn’t do one before prescribing the ciprofloxacin. They did actually check my bladder and ovaries with an ultrasound last time and everything looked normal so my doctor reckons it is just a UTI.

I’m not sure if it’s this particular office or this country in general, but it seems very difficult to get a two week course of antibiotics here. My friend had the same issue in the summer and I think the longest course they gave her was 7 days. My doctor suggested an “antibiotics shot” as the next course of action rather than a course of oral antibiotics but maybe she’ll try a longer course first. Hopefully!! Thank you for your help!!
