Macrobid
Macrobid (nitrofurantoin) is an antibiotic used to treat urinary tract infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. It is specifically used for infections caused by susceptible strains of Escherichia coli, Enterococci, Staphylococci, Citrobacter, Klebsiella, and Enterobacter.
How is this medication used?
Macrobid is usually taken twice a day with food or milk to increase its absorption and reduce stomach upset. It is important to take it for the full duration prescribed, even if symptoms improve before the prescription is finished.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects include nausea, headache, dizziness, upset stomach, diarrhea, and lung problems. Serious side effects can include liver damage, nerve damage, and severe lung problems. Contact your doctor if you experience any severe or persistent side effects.
What are the potential interactions?
Macrobid can interact with several other medications. It should not be taken with antacids that contain magnesium trisilicate, nor should it be used in combination with drugs that reduce gastric acidity, as they may decrease its absorption and effectiveness. Interaction with quinolone antibiotics can also occur.
