It is recommended to do urine or urethral secretion culture and drug sensitivity test before taking the medicine. Select sensitive antibiotics according to the drug sensitivity results. Before the test results come out, levofloxacin capsules and cephalosporin antibiotics can be used for treatment. At the same time, it can also be combined with Chinese medicine preparations. While taking medicine, you need to drink more water and urinate frequently to promote the excretion of bacteria from the urethra.
