Overview

Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs) including cystitis.

Who cannot take Nitrofurantoin?

  • Anaemia
  • Diabetes
  • Porphyria (A blood disorder)
  • A previous allergic reaction to Nitrofurantoin
  • Severe kidney disease

  • Vitamin B deficiency.

How does Nitrofurantoin Tablets work?

Nitrofurantoin works by killing bacteria within the urinary tract or bladder that cause UTIs. When Nitrofurantoin is taken the body quickly filters it out your blood into your urine. This is especially useful for a UTI because the medication is concentrated to the site of infection.

Nitrofurantoin Tablets dosage

The tablets need to be swallowed whole they cannot be chewed or crushed. To prevent an upset stomach, it is recommended to take Nitrofurantoin with a meal or snack. The tablets are taken four times a day for three days. Ideally the tablets need to be spaced out evenly during the day morning, midday, late afternoon, and bedtime. The course needs to be completed. Please follow your doctors or pharmacist’s advice before taking this medication.
