I've been taking amoxicillin 250g three times a day for two days now but my pee still smells gross. How long does it take to stop smelling please? I'm so paranoid people can smell it and it makes me feel very depressed. Thank you so much :)
Fishy smelling urine despite taking antibiotics?

Is this for a urinary tract infection? I believe uti antibiotics are supposed to clear up uti s in a couple days. The remaining doses are so the bacteria won’t return. Has the uti cleared up otherwise? Ie : burning, frequent urination, etc? Give doc a call to see if this Med is correct antibiotic.

Hi, yes it's for a urinary tract infection, I think I will have to call the doctor because the pee odour is still there and I seem to always be going to the toilet especially at night. I was lucky enough not to have had any burning which is great
