Nitrofur 100 Mg

Can you tak this med if pregnant and if it is expired by a month and a half

REPORT

Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic, so while it does not get dangerous to use after its expiration, it can lose potency and will not work as well. That creates the very real risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria, which would be especially dangerous while pregnant.

If you feel you need an antibiotic, you should see your doctor for a diagnosis and new prescription.


As to using it while pregnant, it should also not be taken anytime after your 38th week, due to the babies immature red blood cells and the effect this medication can have on them.

Have you spoken to your doctor, yet?

I just took left over amoxicillin and nitrofur for a Uti that just became really bad. I'm hoping this will hold me over until I can call my dr tomorrow. I was told its ok to take older antibiotics Bc the worst is that they'd lose their ability to work. Please tell me this is true!!!
