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.

About 2.5 years ago, I had an exposure. Recently, I had a penile cyst removed by incision. I have done all STD tests, and the results were negative. Now, I notice a small white ulcer near the surgery site. Should I be worried? I sometimes experience inflammation during urination, and it looks like gamoria on the penile shaft.
