Frequently Asked Questions
Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic used to treat and prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) by targeting bacteria in the bladder. It is available as capsules, tablets, and a liquid form.
Take Nitrofurantoin with or after food to enhance absorption and reduce stomach upset. Swallow the tablets or capsules whole with water. If using the liquid form, use the provided syringe or spoon to measure the dose accurately.
The typical adult dose for treating UTIs is 50mg four times a day or 100mg twice a day for 3-7 days. For prevention, the dose is usually 50-100mg once a day at night. Dosages for children are determined based on their weight or age.
Common side effects include nausea, headache, dizziness, and urine discolouration (dark yellow or brown). Taking the medication with food can help mitigate stomach upset. Serious side effects are rare but can include lung problems, liver issues, and severe allergic reactions.
Nitrofurantoin is not suitable for individuals with severe kidney disease, certain blood disorders, or those who have had allergic reactions to it in the past. Always inform your doctor of any pre-existing conditions before starting the medication.
Most people begin to feel better within a few days of starting Nitrofurantoin. It is important to complete the full course prescribed to prevent the infection from returning.
