Ask your doctor if you can drink cranberry juice (no blends, as little sugar as you can tolerate). This helps urinary health, and may boost your meds.
Oh, and keep a look-out. If you have the same blue-pee inducing pills I had, they're sulfa based. And that's how I found out I'm allergic to sulfa drugs - I broke out in itchy red dots aaaaalllll over. Had to stop the blue-pee drugs early, while itching, and before the UTI cleared up. Soooo a few days later I was back at the doc for the yellow/orange-pee inducing drugs for another 10 days. An itching-and-burning combo that should never be repeated.
