Where to get antibiotics for uti?

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are quite common, especially in women. However, they can make you feel downright miserable. If you suspect that you have a UTI, the first step is to see your doctor right away. You’ll need a prescription for antibiotics to clear up the infection.

But where do you get these magical little pills? Fear not! In this article, we’ve got all the UniTea party details on where to score those sweet sweet antibiotics!

Your Regular Doctor

Your regular doctor is always going to be your go-to option when it comes to UTI treatment. They know what has been going on with your body and will usually schedule an appointment pretty quickly so they can take care of things as soon as possible.

Don’t worry; seeing your physician about such matters isn’t taboo or anything shady like that-Auntie Angie wouldn’t judge now would she?

Urgent Care Centers

If it’s after hours or if scheduling an appointment with your primary physician is too challenging for some reason – maybe because Auntie Angie’s annual potluck festival doesn’t bode well with medical appointments-give an urgent care center a try. Most offer walk-in service and are open most days of the week-or who knows-might as well turn this into another social event huh?

A nurse practitioner at one of these centers should typically be able to give you a diagnosis fairly quickly- but don’t just depend there-those antibiotics are coming home with us tonight!

Note: Be prepared for potential awkwardness though-if nothing else share how good those cupcakes were

Emergency Rooms

Emergency rooms should only be reserved for absolute emergencies-and unfortunately suffering from embarrassing accidents doesn’t quite meet their criteria-(who knew?). But-since they’re staffed around-the-clock and available 24/7-go ahead-call them if something else goes awry like Auntie Angie’s neighbor Tom and they’ll probably arrange to get you seen by a doctor ASAP.

Just don’t pull Auntie’s little stunt again, ok?

Online doctors

Yes, that right-there are now accredited companies offering telemedicine services. Using your own computer and webcam or smartphone, you can have an appointment with a licensed medical practitioner almost on demand-now isn’t technology something?

Most of these sites require around $50 for the initial consultation-and remember, with great power comes great responsibility- but prescriptions can be given from the comfort of their sofa.(I know!)

Cautious Caroline

Please note though – Wherever you decide to receive treatment, make sure that the healthcare provider is reputable-and board-certified. We don’t want to set out in search of remedy only to end up worse than we started!

Over-the-Counter Options Help… A Little Bit

If scheduling time off/work becomes an issue-or perhaps there was another surprise traffic jam hindering our progress to our intended medical providor-we run into one last option: over-the-counter options-at least until something works out.. Hey-even Kris Jenner has those “rare” moments during which she doesn’t look 100%- so it happens.

Products like Uristat or AZO offerrelief for UTI-associated pain-for at least about 12 hours-and since most pharmacies carry them…bumbling around Walgreens will have just become fun-kinda?-no?-ok then..

Urinary tract infections are no joke-but if caught early enough antibiotics help us mortal beings-maintain some level of sanity while allowing functioning below the waistline (wink)!

But whatever route taken-be safe-knowing where NOT to go when hit-we’re slowly learning from Auntie Angie 😉
