Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If she is on an antibiotic, continue the full course. It may take several days to see a response / improvement on the antibiotic. If you think she is in any pain or there is blood in her urine, an anti-inflammatory medication such as Rimadyl or Metacam may help. I would call your veterinarian and discuss this further so that Jenna can get a prescription for either. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
