Common Questions and Answers about Azithromycin uti men

zithromax

Avatar m tn Well, Vance, i had read that UTI in young men is pretty uncommon, without instrumentation. My response to Azithromycin, lead to the conclusion that I had chlamydia, although i did not have any discharge/ulcer. Have you had young men with UTIs? similar episodes?? Please answer. Thanks.
Avatar m tn At the time i had a sinus infection and completed a course of Azithromycin. The Azithromycin did not clear the sinus infection so i was put on Cefdinir at 300 mg twice a day for one week. My hope was that if i had anything one of these two antibiotics would clear it up. Yesterday i went to doctor due to still having the burning after urination. I was given a pee test and then prescibed 10 days of Cipro 500 mg twice a day.
Avatar m tn I have already gone to the Department of Health in my town and gotten tested, but they did not give me antibiotics for gonorrhea and chlamydia because they did not think I was at high risk and would prefer to wait for the results of the test. They said they thought it could possibly be a UTI instead, but I've heard that those are nearly nonexistent in young men. So my questions are "how high-risk do you think my situation was?
Avatar n tn s had one known UTI two weeks after my exposure / Doc prescribed her Cipro (5 days), her UTI cleared, but now it seems like every week or so she's complaining about a "funny feeling" when she urinates. Not a full blown UTI, but an awareness down there that she's not use to. She seems to just drink a lot of water and it feels better for about a week or so, then it comes back.. (the "awareness").
Avatar m tn I also had the same problem at the begining of last summer. I was given 2 doses of 1000mg azithromycin and it went away in 2 days. Could it be that the std is ammuned to the azithromycin after i got rid of it the first time? Oh also i took azithromycin a week prior to seeing the Dr and getting tested..could this be the reason that no bacteria showed but there was still red and white blood cells in my urine? I am at a loss with this. Any advice will help greatly...
Avatar f tn I believe I caught it 2 weeks previous when I slept with a new guy. My symptoms were uti Symptoms and a bit of yellowish discharge. I took 1000 mg of azithromycin, but it seemed to do nothing. I called and got sent macrobid thinking it was a lingering uti caused by the chlamydia. This also did nothing. I went back to a clinic and got retested positive for chlamydia again 2 weeks later. Took azithromycin again with no relief.
Avatar n tn s situation. Azithromycin (Z-Pak) is never given for UTI, and that treatment suggests her doctor suspected an STD, especially chlamydia. Chlamydia could explain your urethral symptoms as well. However, you can't catch chlamydia by oral sex -- but conceivably that problem started with your female partner and has nothing to do with the other guy. Or perhaps you indeed caught nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) from the oral sex event.
Avatar m tn //www.medhelp.org/posts/STDs---STIs/Do-I-have-an-STI-or-a-UTI/show/2999544#post_14269614 . I was tested for chlamydia & gonorrhea 2 weeks after encounter, and results were negative. I was given 1g azithromycin and symptoms improved for a bit and then returned after a couple of weeks.
Avatar n tn This is a rare problem but the more research I do on the internet the more forums and support groups I see with men experiencing this issue with NO answers, regardless of how many urologists and dermatologists they've seen. About 3 months ago I had unprotected anal, vaginal, and oral sex with a female. She is clean. A week later some sort of infection occurred in my urethra. Burned terribly when I urinated and head of my penis got extremely red and inflamed.
Avatar f tn Doctor immediately put me on Metronidazole and single dose of Azithromycin. Before I started the treatments, there was white discharge and fishy odor but no urge to constantly pee even after I had just emptied my bladder. After treatments, the discharge and odor has gone away but I now have a constant urge to pee and when I go to pee it’s very little and there is very slight burning. Is it possible that the azithromycin didn’t work or is this possibly a UTI?
19078612 tn?1471987002 Yesterday I took this information to my Doctor and was given 4 tablets of Azithromycin 250 mg , as a single treatment for my exposure? So is that it? Only 1 single treatment for Men with Ureaplasma? Upon being discharged from my Doctors office, I was given in my packet of paperwork suggesting that my visit was for STD's. And even on a listing of symptoms and checklist of activities to avoid? But again, its not an STD !
Avatar m tn If you are found to still have urethritis, re-treatment may be recommended; the standard approach is to treat such men with azithromycin (Zithromax) with or without metronidazole (Flagyl and other brands). Please try to avoid urinating for at least 4 hours before being examined; this aids in detecting subtle evidence of urethritis. (Best is to arrange an early morning appointment, avoid fluids near bedtime, and get examined before first urination of the day.
Avatar m tn It it that have taken azithromycin with is to cure chalmydia and gonnerea and not for UTI? How effective is it for UTI 2> I am still facing with semisolid stools. The frequency of going to stools is from 1 to 3 times max in a day? what the reason? 3> The burring in also after mastrubation and i do not have any burning while i am passing urine? 4> From past two days i am feeling cold in my penis / scrotum and both thigh near the groin area. 5> No pain while passing urine or stools?
Avatar f tn s and started experiencing symptoms such a urethral burning and pain while urinating several months ago. I took Macrobid that I already had at home assuming it was a UTI. The symptoms seemed to come and go. They worsened around April, and I was diagnosed with chlamydia. I'm not sure when I contracted, but I believe it's possible I had it for a few months before being diagnosed.
Avatar m tn Not exactly sure what it was as I am in a location that I couldnt be tested, just recieved 2 G Azithromycin to take care of that. Might have just been a UTI for all I know. Now I'm worried about the HIV risk. I understand its a possibility but should I be stressing about it? I am currently in a country where I cant get tested which is the only reason I havent been yet. But I am not sexually active currently either.
Avatar f tn I'm 23 years old, 1/22/18 I tested positive for Chlamydia after experiencing UTI like symptoms and was prescribed 2 azithromycin 500 mg tablets from planned parenthood. Symptoms disappeared but then reappeared 3 months later and I returned and tested positive again and was pescribed doxycycline 100mg tabs once a day for 7 days. After treatment my symptoms continued to persist and I worried that I was still not cured.
Avatar f tn About a week ago, I started having burning and pain when I peed, so I went to the doctor suspecting a UTI. They told me that I did not have sufficent nitrates in my urine to say it was a UTI so they gave me a pap and told me they thought it was either Chlamydia or Gonorrhea. They perscribed a single dose of 500mg Cipro and 4 250mg (1000mg) of Azithromycin (I could be spelling that wrong).
