A 16-mоnth-оld femаle is evаluаted fоr complaints of fever over the past 24 hours with a Tmax of 102°F and dysuria. The child was born full term and does not have any significant past medical history. She has never been hospitalized or had any surgeries. Immunizations are up to date, currently not taking any medications except Tylenol for fever. There are no allergies. A urine specimen by sterile catheter is sent to the lab for urinalysis and culture. The office dipstick shows that her urine is positive for nitrites and 3+ for leukocytes. You diagnose her with UTI and prescribe trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole for 10 days while waiting for the culture results. The child’s fever and symptoms resolve. What is the most appropriate course of action at this point?
