@angieb16 Sometimes, it takes a longer treatment with antibiotics than 5 days, to clear up a UTI. In my past, it has taken a 2 week regimen. And don't forget, some infections may need a different antibiotic to be effective. Sometimes they need to culture an infection to see what will work.
If you feel more comfortable calling now, does your doctor have a nurse advisor you can check in with?

It was a 14 day regimen but I didn’t realize that cipro it’s a very dangerous antibiotic and I was not feeling good taking them my infection was e.coli and the dr I was seeing at that time didn’t want to give me something else but I did take another urine test and it had cleared…I don’t think so but I can call and see if they can move my appt sooner
