Fosfomycin, it’s a powder that I have to mix with 3 or 4 ounces of water. It’s a one dose med which I ❤️. I’m allergic to most antibiotics and an arm’s length if not 2, of most meds so finding something that doesn’t make me sicker and that works is a true blessing. And with all those allergies and the constant recurring UTIs they always do a culture.
Most recently, Keflex. All cultures say Ecoli. Bactrum and Cipro were not effective. I’ve asked about a routine low dose of Macrobid, but was advised this approach is a last resort since it is hard on the kidneys and can build up a resistance. I’d rather not take heavy antibiotics anyway. They wipe me out.
