Report shows infection and presence of k. gave her cefixime and asked to repeat the test after taking antIbiotic for 3days, now test is showing infection and presence of k. pneumoneae and p. aeroginosa. please tell me is this a serious issue which precautions should she take now
salaam. 3days antibiotic doesn't work she need to take it for longer time.
Continue taking cefixime for 10-14 days. Increase intake of fluids. Cranmax sachet twice daily
She must consult medical specialist as early as possible for antibiotic treatment
Consult with medical specialist again
Yes this is a serious infection and it needs proper treatment... I will prescribe you proper medication course of 10 days and after that infection will be resolved inshaAllah.... U can contact me through marham for proper treatment...

1) aap ki picture mey jaraaseem ka colony count nazar nahi aa raha. report ki reliability key liye lab ka hona zaroori hai.
urine culture ki reliabilty key liye, it is important to know if patient collected her sample with correct procedure.
2) more than 1000 (10 to the power 3) colony forming units of bacteria on urine culture during pregnancy should always be treated
3) cefixime for 3 days is no kind of treatment course for klebsiella
4) please note that proper medical advice cannot, and SHOULD NOT, be requested on messaging.
it is unsafe to request or prescribe medicines without talking in detail with patient.
