#AskTheExpert Hi doctor, I am recently diagnosed with UTI with Eschericha Coli and colony growth count 1,00,000 CFU/ml and Heavy Growth. My gynaecologist had initially suggested me 7day Taxim O 200mg antibiotic course before urine culture report for fever,chills,burning urine,itchy vagina and pain in left flank but after the report asked me to stop Taxim and take Niftas SR 100mg. I have two queries : 1. Is it OK to stop an antibiotic course midway suddenly- I have taken the medicine for 5days only out of 7 and have been asked to stop and switch. 2. I am a mother of 17day old and breastfeeding . I checked online and many places says Niftas SR is not safe while breastfeeding but my gynaecologist gave me the antibiotic. Please suggest as I don't want to take any chances with my newborn's wellbeing.

Q. Hi, My son was diagnosed with Urinary Track infection 10 days back and the count was 10*5 CFU/ML. Doctor suggested Ofloux Oz syrup and one more digestive enzymes syrup for 2 weeks . After completing medication for 2 weeks , we underwent the same UTI test today to know whether the infection is reduced or not ? Surprisingly the report says same 10*5 CFU/ML count . Is it normal to have the same count even after medication . My son stopped complaining about stomach pain and he is doing fine after using medication. Could someone please guide us ?
