Chronic Urethritis Treatment
If evidence of infection is present, antibiotics are initiated, and a follow-up urinalysis or culture will be performed after all the medications have been taken.
Women who have repeated episodes of intercourse-related urethritis or cystitis may be prescribed a peri-coital (taken shortly before or after intercourse) dose of prophylactic (preventive) antibiotics.
People with urethral syndrome (symptoms without evidence of infection) may be prescribed phenazopyridine (Pyridium) to decrease urinary discomfort while further evaluation of the cause is conducted.
Possible chemical irritants are also discontinued to determine the causal agent.
