I am taking antibiotics for a urinary infection. I want to know the time gap that should be given between the antibiotic Zocef and Cital syrup. I am taking Zocef after meals, so after how much time should I take Cital syrup? I have attached my urine report. Also, how much should I take 5 ml or 10 ml, and should it be twice or thrice daily?

You can keep a 30 to 60 minute gap between Zocef and Cital syrup. Since one is an antibiotic and the other helps support urinary comfort, separating them helps avoid any possible interaction. Continue staying well hydrated and monitor symptoms. If discomfort continues, follow up with your doctor.

For the past two months, I have been needing to urinate every two hours and sometimes cannot control it. I do not have diabetes, and I have submitted my urine report. Please tell me what I should do.

Please check my report. My name is Suman, I am 28 years old, my weight is 100 kg, and my height is 6 ft. I have been a hypertension patient for the last 4 to 5 years and do regular medical checkups. I did my medical checkup a week ago. My creatinine level is 1.15, while the normal lab value is 1.4. Is my creatinine level normal or high? Should I take any medicine for creatinine, and is there any reason to be concerned?

Hi, seven days ago I masturbated roughly, and since then I have been experiencing pain and a burning sensation around my penis/genital area. My groin and buttocks also feel unusually warm. I do not have pain while urinating, and there is no blood or discharge. I have started taking antibiotics, but the symptoms persist. My urine test came back negative. Is it normal to have these symptoms for a week, or could it be something other than urethritis?
