Hi, my 4 month old kid (male) has been diagnosed with UTI infection. The culture indicates for E- coli. My doctor has recommended for Taxim-o twice daily. But culture shows the component of Taxim-o resistant to E-coli. What shall I do, shall we continue with the same medicine or change?
Hi, The antibiotic being given to your baby for his UTI needs to be changed as soon as possible!  Continuing to take the medication that the E. coli is resistant to will not sterilize his urine to cure his UTI.  And the longer he has the infection, the greater the chance of complications developing.  Also, a young infant needs to have his urinary tract studied for any abnormalities when he gets a UTI(for example, ultrasound of kidneys, bladder, and urethra).  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
