Asking For Someone else, Mother, Female, 60 Years old, Karachi
Patient 60y Female is having pain in urinating with trouble in retention. We went to doctor to consult where she was prescribed Furolin tablets and some painkillers. The doctor also asked for Urine Culture test. Now that she is already taking meds, is it ok to undergo this urine culture test as i am under the impression that antibiotics may affect the outcome of the test. Appreciate your kind response
urine analysis and ultrasound KUB
Hello, how are you? Ideally for urine culture you shouldn't be on antibiotics as it might provide you with false positive/false negative results. Can you confirm for how long has she taken Furolin? Any co morbidities such as diabetes, hypertension? Has this happened to her the first time or she has a chronic UTI problem?
Salam get urine c/s first start then antibiotic thanks
no problm,can go forC/S
you should consult online and take medicine. And You don't have to worry about it. After taking some medicine she will be completely fine inshallah.
