Yes, it's safe. You have UTI. Drink lots of plain water at least 3 glasses warm water 4 hr intervals irrespective of feeling thirsty or not. It will cure fast.

Mikacin 500 mg injection is an antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth by preventing synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. There is no common side effect. You can go for it.
