4 days ago I started feeling sick and had the urge to urinate but little to none came out every time, had a burning feeling when I urinated and had a fever of 38.5 Celsius. 3 days ago I started taking Augmentin 1000mg every 12 hours and my fever went up to 39.5 which dropped whith Paracetamol . Today I dont feel the same burn, I urinate almost normally but my temperature is steady at 37.2 Celsius. My normal temperature is 36.6. Should I continue taking Augmentin and for how long? Thanks

This appears to be a case of Urinary Tract Infection. I hope that the doctor would have prescribed augmenting based upon your urine culture report. Usually, Augumentin is prescribed for 5 or 7 days in case of UTI. Please complete the course in consultation with your doctor.
