When can I drink or eat the stuff like again when I have UTI?

Question

After taking Macrobid few days ago, my UTI came back last night so I made an appointment for Monday to see the doctor again to test again and send the test to a lab. For now he prescribed me some pain & burning relief called Pryidium.

I know I have to drink cranberry juice and water. Are there other things I cannot eat or drink? For example, spicy food and sodas?

How long until I can eat and drink those food again?

Answer 1

I do not think what you eat will have ant effect but you do need to drink water and the cran juices. Keep your soda intake to a minimum as they cause dehydration.

Answer 2

Drink lots of cranberry juice but stay away from the sugar.

I've even had an ER doc tell me once when I went in for a UTI to stop on my way home and get  a 6 pack of beer he said it would flush out my kidneys and my bladder better than cran.  Feel Better soon.

Answer 3

I wouldnt drink soda. Sine you have discovered the pain of a UTI, soda is the first thing that will give you one.I hope you feel better soon

Answer 4

Nothing is strictly forbidden, but you may find that things like alcohol and caffeine further irritate it. Pyridium is marvelous stuff for pain relief when you have a UTI, but just to warn you, you might want to wear a thin pad or pantyliner while you're on it. It turns your pee a really bright yellowish orange that can stain your underwear. Don't be alarmed.

UTIs are so annoying and painful! I hope you feel better soon.

Answer 5

Leave the drugs alone...
