You should really avoid such exposure, because this medication will make you much more sensitive to the sun and heat. Even a small amount of exposure could result in severe sunburn, skin rash and overheating.

"Plan to avoid unnecessary or prolonged exposure to sunlight and to wear protective clothing, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Nitrofurantoin may make your skin sensitive to sunlight."

The common side effects to this medication may include: nausea, drowsiness, skin rash and diarrhea.
