Patient's question:
Frequency of urination, urgency of urination, difficulty urinating for over 2 yearsDoctor's answer:
Currently, many advocate the use of fluoroquinolone drugs such as ofloxacin or levofloxacin. If ineffective, continue for 8 weeks. If recurrence occurs with the same bacterial species, switch to a preventive dose to reduce acute episodes and alleviate symptoms. If long-term antibiotic use induces severe side effects, such as pseudomembranous colitis, diarrhea, or the proliferation of intestinal drug-resistant strains, the treatment plan should be changed.
