It is actually quite common to see some residual pus cells (10 to 15) in the urine even after finishing Taxim O (cefixime) drops, as the bladder lining takes time to fully heal from the inflammation. It doesn't absolutely mean the infection is still active, especially if she is happy, feeding well, and has no fever. However, to be certain the infection is completely cleared, I highly recommend consulting her pediatrician. They may suggest a quick repeat urine culture to be safe. Please keep her comfortable and monitor her closely.
