Hello,

Welcome to Just Answer.

What are your symptoms now?

How long the symptom is there?

Thank you.

Customer replied 291 days and 15 hours ago.

Frequent urination with burning. What I am experiencing now feels the same as the UTIs I've had in the past.

Thank you for the information,

Phenazopyridine 2 tablets 3 times a day can be taken.

After 2 hours it is too early.

You can take after 6 hours.

Now you can take plenty of water to have good urine flow.

Thus your symptoms can be relieved.

Ibuprofen can be taken.

If the symptoms continue, then I would advise to consult doctor for tests.

I hope this information helps.

Please continue conversation till you are satisfied.

I will be happy to assist, if you need any clarification.

Please feel free for any follow up query by using reply button before putting negative rating.

Thanks for the response.


 


When I take the medication again, should I try a different brand? The product has worked for me in the past so I don't understand why it's not working this time around. Can you think of a reason it's not working. I plan on going to the doctor tomorrow but that is 7 hours from now and I'm not able to sleep. I just took 300 mg of IBP.

Sometimes, there can be individual variation or a severe infection.

You can try different brand.

You have just taken IBP.

It can take effect after a few minutes.

Customer replied 291 days and 15 hours ago.

Would you recommend I go to the emergency room now rather than wait 7 hours to see a doctor.

You can wait 1/2 to 1 hour to see whether the pain medicines help.

If the pain does not decrease, you can consider going to ER.
