How to Take 30 Days of Antibiotics for Blood in the Urine

Blood in the urine is usually the result of a urinary tract infection. It is important to visit a doctor and give a urine sample, so that the exact cause of the infection can be determined and antibiotics prescribed. The most common antibiotics prescribed for UTIs are Nitrofurantoin, Ciprofloxacin and Levofloxacin. It is important that you follow the doctor's directions in taking the entire amount of prescribed antibiotics if you have blood in your urine.

Instructions

• 1

  Read the label on the bottle of antibiotics you have been prescribed to ascertain how many pills you are to take each day.

• 2

  Take the antibiotics with water at the specified time each day. It is best to take antibiotics at mealtimes, rather than on an empty stomach.

• 3

  Finish the 30-day course of antibiotics. Even if the blood in your urine clears up, it is important to complete the antibiotics you have been prescribed.
