Look dear,
May be you need to have urine culture & sensitivity test at 1st to know the offending agent.You need also drugs that alter urinary ph. The best treatment at all is the fluroquinolone group of antibiotic,3rd generation e.g norfloxacin,ofloxacin ,ciprofloxacin[CIPROFAR]They are wonderful withlittle microbial resistanceprovided you take them in full course,full dose.But to know they are contraindicated during pregnancy,believe me dear,I'm in faculty of medicine & I've studied that.

The best medication will be an antibiotic that is prescribed by your doctor. Until you can get in to see him, you can buy some over the counter medication called Uristat. It will help with the pain. If you can't get to the store, try a glass of water with a teaspoon of baking soda in it. It will help make the urine less acidic.

Dont bother trying cranberry juice or lots of water the only thing that will clear this up is an antibiotic from your doc. Oh and when it clears, go to the bathroom as soon as you feel the urge dont hold it thats what causes them.

I used to get them a lot. For me, the best medicine was always "Bactrim", or another brand name of it, same drug, "Septra". Usually a 3 day supply, one tablet, twice a day, did the trick.
