1. Martifur Mr. 100 (nitrofurantoin) is a good antibiotic and no need to use levofloxacin. 2. Drink plenty of fluids and re evaluates blood sugars and glycemic control. 3. If he is on sglt2 inhibitor drugs (canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin) for diabetes, it can cause recurrent uti. 4. If he has recurrent uti, get urine culture and sensitivity for definitive treatment.

Dear , I must know your age, urine report sonography with full bladder volume, bladder-wall thickness and post void residual urine. As you have recurrent/persistent infection one has to find the cause. It may be that the dose was not right or duration was inadequate or drug was not taken as it should be taken or usg was wrongly interpreted or was not done in much detail as shown earlier. So please post the reports with films so that I can guide you properly.

I want to consult for my mother, age-53y. Three weeks ago she feels mild aches right lower back side occasionally. So we went to gp two weeks ago, gp suggested for usg whole abdomen and urine culture. Usg report is normal but urine culture found escherichia coli (100000 cfu/ml of unspun urine). But no burning sensation during urine. Antibiogram of culture report: amikacin – scefotaxime- cefixime- s ciprofloxacin- norfloxacin- ofloxacin- r levofloxacin-i lomefloxacin-imeropenem- moxifloxacin- Inalidixic acid- nitrofurantoin- s gentamycin- spiperac/tazobactam- samplicillin/sulbactam-s (s=sensitive,i=intermediate, r=resistant) gp prescribed - martifur 100 tablet - once for first 3 days, twice for next 12 days. Syp uriliser- 2table spoon 1/2cup water twice but no improvement after two weeks. Again consult with gp, he prescribe - o2 tablet – twice for 5 days martifur 100 – once for 10 days. But no improvement. As per antibiogram e.coli has ofloxacin resistant. But gp prescribed o2 tablet (ofloxacin-200 mg). Does o2 tablet works against these strain bacteria? Martifur 100 tablet - once for first 3 days, twice for next 12 days. Can this antibiotic effective because initially 3 days once a day (may be low dose, may bacterial got resistant for low dose)? Please suggest another medicine which would be better.

I think you mean nt test. It is a screening test for chromosomal disorders like downs syndrome. It gives us a risk assessment of your delivering a baby affected with downs syndrome and a few other conditions.
It is being advised in pregnant women all over the world at 12 weeks.
