Medications for Urinary Tract Infection

Medications used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Urinary tract infections, or UTIs, are common infections that affect the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Anyone can get a UTI, but women are more likely to experience them than men. Common symptoms include pain or burning when urinating, feeling tired or shaky, a frequent urge to urinate, pressure in the lower belly, and urine that may smell bad or appear cloudy or reddish. Some people may also feel pain in their back or side below the ribs. Certain factors, such as having diabetes or needing a tube to drain the bladder, can increase the risk of developing a UTI. If you suspect you have a UTI, it’s important to see your doctor, who can confirm the diagnosis with a urine test. Treatment typically involves a range of prescription medications. Be sure to discuss with your doctor which treatment option is best for you.
