Treating kidney infection

Antibiotics
For most people, apart from pregnant women,  antibiotics called ciprofloxacin or Co-amoxiclav are usually recommended.

Common side effects of ciprofloxacin include feeling sick and diarrhoea.
Co-amoxiclav sometimes makes the contraceptive pill and contraceptive patches less effective, so you may need to use another form of contraception during the course of treatment.A 14-day course of an antibiotic called cefalexin is recommended for pregnant women.

Painkillers
Taking a painkiller, such as paracetamol, should help to relieve symptoms of pain and a high temperature.

Drinking water
