Do not substitute your prescribed cefuroxime with Neeri syrup. Cefuroxime is an antibiotic necessary to clear a bacterial infection, whereas Neeri syrup is a supportive herbal formulation that cannot cure it. Additionally, starting or changing medications while undergoing a urine culture can alter your test results. Ideally, the urine sample should be collected before starting your antibiotic. Please consult your doctor before making any changes so they can safely guide your treatment based on your culture results.
