Urinary tract infection (UTI) treatment
A urinary tract infection, or UTI, is an infection that can affect the bladder, urethra, ureters, or kidneys. Most UTIs affect the lower urinary tract, including the bladder and urethra.
Common UTI symptoms may include:
- Burning or pain when you urinate
- Feeling like you need to urinate frequently
- Passing small amounts of urine
- Lower abdominal discomfort
- Cloudy, bloody, or strong-smelling urine
UTIs are commonly caused by bacteria and are often treated with prescription antibiotics. The right treatment depends on your symptoms, medical history, allergies, and other factors. A healthcare provider can determine whether antibiotic treatment is appropriate for you.
Those symptoms and the general treatment approach align with NIDDK and Mayo Clinic guidance.
Our doctors or nurse practitioners look at the answers you give to our health questions to decide if you have an uncomplicated UTI that we can treat appropriately online. Depending on your symptoms and medical history, we may tell you that we can't give you a prescription and that you have to see a doctor or nurse practitioner in person.
Common UTI FAQs
Can I get UTI treatment online?
Yes. If your symptoms are consistent with an uncomplicated urinary tract infection, a healthcare provider may be able to evaluate your symptoms online and prescribe treatment when medically appropriate. Some symptoms or medical conditions may require an in-person visit, urine testing, or additional evaluation.
What medications are used to treat a UTI?
Bacterial UTIs are commonly treated with prescription antibiotics. The medication that's right for you depends on factors such as your symptoms, medical history, allergies, previous infections, and other medications you're taking. Your Lemonaid healthcare provider will determine whether an antibiotic is appropriate and which treatment option is best for you if eligible.
How quickly do UTI antibiotics work?
Many people begin to notice improvement within a few days after starting antibiotic treatment, although how quickly symptoms improve can vary. Take your medication exactly as prescribed and complete the prescribed course, even if you start feeling better. If your symptoms aren't improving or are getting worse, contact your provider.
When is it not appropriate to treat UTI online?
Certain symptoms may suggest a more complicated infection or kidney involvement and may require in-person evaluation. If any of the following apply, it's in your best interest to see a doctor or nurse practitioner in person.
