I'm taking the antibiotic for a UTI, I was wondering if it would help or not with my poison ivy?

Hi Kimberly.

Generally, for poison ivy treatment, a cortisone preparation may be prescribed as well, which can be taken orally, injected, or applied locally as a cream.

If it got infected, then I would definitely give Nitrofurantoin a shot at it for 5-10 days, depending upon what your doctor suggests. I heard of another poison ivy victim using Azithromycin 250 mg 2 times daily for 5 days for relief, in conjunction with steroids/cortisone.

Were you able to get it checked out by a physician yet?
