Nitrofuran Monohyd Macro 100 Mg

I am on day 3 OF NITROFURAN MONOHYD MACRO 100MG 100 mg for urinary track infection every 12hrs, I have problems with my stomach and have been prescribed DICYCLOMINE 10MG/5ML. (1/2 hr before meals) Is safe to take while taking NUTRIFURAN? ## Hi Virnia, Based on my research, there are no drug interactions listed between Nitrofurantoin and Dicyclomine. So just going off that information alone, I don't think there should be any problems using the two together (outside of each medication's own general side effects). However, if you still have any reservations about taking them, it may be best to call your doctor up and verify that it's ok with him as well. Was it the same doctor who prescribed you the Nitrofurantoin, that also give you the script for Dicyclomine? ## Does macrobid...

I am 13 weeks pregnant. This is my second time taking this antibiotic within a pmonth n a half. For a Uti. Both times were to take 2 aday for 7 days. The first time i took the med for the whole 7 days. Did not work 100% I waited it out for about 2 to 3 weeks went back for the second set. So i had 1 the first da.y. then I've had the 2 a day for 2 days. And im not feeling any improvements. Sarting to get nervous. Just want this to go away. ## Hello, Bubbles! How are you doing? Congrats on the baby! You should see improvement after taking the antibiotic for a full 3 days. If you had none after that time, you should contact your doctor as this may not be the right antibiotic to clear up this infection. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am experiencing hypotension (72/40) Is this related to the use of this drug? I am calling the doctor tomorrow. Also experiencing nausea. Please help ## This is still Gary...the BP should read 72/40. ## Hi, Gary! Sorry about the issues you're having. Are you feeling any better? The nausea can be a normal side effect of this antibiotic, however, the hypotension isn't. But the question there is whether or not you've had other side effects from it, such as diarrhea? If so, then you may be getting dehydrated, which could be causing the low BP. Learn more Nitrofurantoin details here.

Can Nitrofuran Monohyd Macro 100 mg be used for abscess infections? ## Nitrofurantoin is used primarily to treat urinary tract infections. It also notes in the guidelines that Nitrofurantoin must never be used to treat pyelonephritis, renal ABSCESS, and pyeloempyema because of extremely poor tissue penetration and low blood levels. Based on the above info I think it would be beneficial to contact your local pharmacy and/or doctor to find out if it is right the specific type of infection you are referring to. Hope this helps!

Before I take these pills I would like to know the side effects. My Doctor prescribed them to me but I forgot to ask about the side effects. Are they safe, will the make me feel wired, or am I over exaggerating. I do not like taking pills what so ever and I always feel like I get an anxiety attack or something along that line. I just feel ugh maybe because I scare myself, I don't know. Please get back to me asap as I'm suppose to start taking them tomorrow. Thanks. ## Help, Sasha! How are you? This is an antibiotic and its normal side effects may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Nitrofurantoin details here. It shouldn't make you feel wired, that is most likely just you doing it to yourself. :-) Many people go through that, so don...

I am finishing eight days of nitrofuran 100 mgm twice daily for a UTI. Experiencing some bladder irritation and frequency. Could this be from the drug retained in the urine? Thanks! ## Hello, Tom! How are you? No, it shouldn't cause those types of symptoms, but it may not have been the proper medication to eradicate the infection you had. Just because it treats most such infections doesn't mean it will always treat all of them. The general rule with antibiotics is that if the are working, you shouldn't see any worsening after taking it for a full 24 hours and then you should start to see improvement within 3 days. Have you consulted your doctor, yet? You may need to try a different antibiotic.

Is taking Omeprazole contraindicated while taking nitrofuran monohyd macro 100 mg? One of the warnings in the information sheet provided for the medication is to "not use magnesium trisilicate-containing antacids while taking this medication." ## Hi Diane, Based on my research there actually aren't any drug interactions listed between those two medications 'in and of themselves'. However, if Omeprazole tablets do contain "magnesium trisilicate" as an inactive ingredient (which I've read that it does from several searches), then it would probably be best to play it safe and adhere to those packaging guidelines; unless of course your doctor instructs you to do otherwise for one reason or another. Is this your first time having to use either of these medicat...

UTI NITROFURANT M/M 100MG CAPS ## Nitrofurantoin monohydrate / macrocrystals (100 mg). It is usually used in treating urinary tract infection. To view information about this drug, please click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## can i open the capsule and take whats inside? i cant swallow pills. ## I know plenty of individuals who have trouble with swallowing pills and need to empty the capsule into water to ingest it. It may however be an unpleasant taste, but if you do it with little amounts of water you can drink it quickly and then wash it down with more water afterwards. I feel like that is the best approach, but feel free to post back if you have any other questions or comments regarding this.

I took this twice in a row at 2:00. Is that okay? Also, is it okay to take one tomorrow morning and then 1 at night? ## Hi Mary, I just took a look at the dosing guidelines for this medication, and it states that Nitrofurantoin monohydrate/macrocrystals capsulesÂshould be taken with food every 12 hours for seven days. Because of that strict 12 hour gap in between doses, I definitely wouldn't say it is ok to take them back to back like that. Schedule your doses so that you take 1 in the morning when you get up and one a couple hours before you go to bed (giving yourself enough time to leave you with 12 hours before the following morning dose).
