Pregnant after a Loss

UTI Question

I'm at Costco waiting for a prescription for a UTI. My OB is having me take an anti microbial drink. Anyone with any experience taking something like this before?

Re: UTI Question

  • "An antimicrobial drink"?! Crazy. That's a new one to me, and I've been around the UTI block a LOT!

    Sorry you're going through this. Hope the drink clears it up!

  • Same here - never heard of it, only been prescriped antibiotics for UTIs.  Hope the drink helps!
  • Thanks everyone. It turns out it was an antibiotic pill (nitrofurantoin) that the pharmacy gave me, even through the nurse I spoke with said it would be an antimicrobial drink. Apparently this medicine comes in liquid form too. Things are already much better today. Luckily this one didn't get as bad as some of the ones I've had in the past.

  • I have had several UTIs in my lifetime, unfortunately. I've never heard of a drink though. They usually give me an anti-biotic and I pick up an over the counter urinary track numbing pill pack at CVS. They are safe during pregnancy and provide almost instant relief!
