If you have mild symptoms (one - two symptoms or vaginal discharge) then antibiotics are less likely to help.

Try the following instead:
🔹Drinking more fluids (aim for 6–8 glasses a day)
🔹Taking paracetamol or ibuprofen for pain relief (if suitable for you)
🔹Cranberry capsules or cystitis sachets as some women find these helpful

Antibiotics are not always needed as they can cause side effects like thrush, rashes, vomiting or diarrhoea

In most cases symptoms should improve within 5 – 7 days
