macrobid

Avatar f tn I have been prescribed nitrofurantoin (macrobid) for a UTI. I have a hard time swallowing pills. Can these be broken up?
Avatar n tn I visit the doctor again and she gave me Nitrofurantoin antibiotics and after taking them once, instantly my erections returned and tests returned to normal size -I am taking 100mg twice in a day . The next day I woke up and my erections were gone again and testes shrunk, I took Nitrofurantoin and nothing is happening . I’m so scared I have phoned 111 and told them this and they told me to Go to my doctor again - the doctor said she gave me antibiotics already and refused to see me !
Avatar m tn I would ask the doctor and/or pharmacist if the tingling will go away after she gets off the Nitrofurantoin and if so then if she can tolerate it and it is working well then you can either up to dose of neurontin or try to tolerate it until the antibiotic is finished. If not then switch. I would not go off anything until talking to the doctor. Depending on the dose of Gabapin, she may have to taper off of it as you cannot go off of it immediately. You will get rebound insomina.
Avatar f tn I woke up on thursday morning with a sore throat and a cough, on Friday morning i noticed a rash on my face and it is still there. Has any one had a reaction like this?
Avatar m tn 9 days ago Nitrofurantoin (200g a day for 5 days) was taken and daily birth control (Qlaira). Both are known to decrease levels of haptoglobin but nothing about complete depletion. Could this be an extended effect from Nitrofurantoin? When should the test be repeated ?
Avatar m tn I have just got to 3 days on nitrofurantoin for uti, dizziness and headache got too bad as side effects. And now I'm losing my hearing too, no wax. It's inside and pain all over my face. Still dizzy, hearing been getting worse all day. Very quick. It's definitely the nitrofurantoin. I wondered as it says it can swell the salivary glands, cause sore throats and constant cold if it's to do with thst or a part of the nerve damage side effect? Did it resolve for you?
Avatar f tn I have recently been feeling unwell and have recurring UTI’s and been on Nitrofurantoin. I also take levothyroxine for an under active thyroid. I recently had a LFT and my ALT was 934. My GGT was 140 and bilirubin 37. I am having an urgent scan tomorrow but the drs seem at a loss as to what is causing this? Any advice or help?
Avatar f tn But and the doctor, prescribed ciprobid, doxyl and nitrofurantoin for me and my wife. I have visited the doctor 3times and the last tested I did. He told I had almost nothing in terms of UTI and in my partner there was an indication that she had UTI, and we were both put on medication, but after the medication, I still feel the pain. We have not been meeting with my partner.
Avatar f tn (My weight is about 145 kg, previously has been 188 kg, with a length of 170cm) It started in 2006, I did get nitrofurantoin, but I got only more ill, till I even got over 41 degree fever and an emergency-doctor then prescribed ciprofloxacin which did help (this was in Holland). Since 2008 we are in UK and I have been under treatment at St George, London, till 2010.
363694 tn?1239679098 i did take a test a few days ago and there was a faint line, and i took one again today and its still a very very faint line. and im curious about the lactation, i have three children and have had two m/c in the past 6 months. is it possable that this would cause early lactation? i do know its possable to have your bbs leak even when your not pregnant but coupled with all my other symptoms, im finding it very coincidental. when i miscarried in nov.
2112967 tn?1339022368 I am 27 yrs old and pregnant with my second child. I am 28 weeks along and by this time in my first pregnancy I was leaking (or lactating) and so far with this pregnancy I have yet to start leaking/lactating. Is this ok or normal? The baby is fine and is actively moving every day and every test and ultrasound I've had has been normal. Could there be some other reason as to why I haven't started leaking/lactating yet?
Avatar f tn well u can take pills to help ull have to ask ur doc and pumping before and after each feeding may help! my milk decreased from not pumping and useing a nipleshield and i never got it back to were it had been but it was enuff ! just talk to ur doctor..
Avatar f tn I haven been active in 11yrs sents my 1 child and after 11yrs I'm leaking and I'm not even sure if thats normal
541196 tn?1293552936 t actually experienced any actual lactation, however my doctor did notice that my prolactin was elevated which is what would cause the benign tumor and lactation. My doctor had me do an MRI and it also came back clear. From what I have read, it is possible to experience elevated prolactin even without the tumor. Do you know what your prolactin level was at?
Avatar f tn i was going threw the same thing but i took test after test and they should up negitive. After about 7 1/2 weeks of pain in my breast and fluid i went to the hospital for throwing up and little did I know I was pregnant wait a while and take another one okay...Hope everything works out.
Avatar n tn He loves to suck on my breast and I love it when he does its really nice. He ***** on them about everyday and well he did it today and said there was stuff coming out...Is it breast milk? Am I lactating even though I am not pregnant? Is it possible?
Avatar f tn I'm 24 weeks pregnant today and I'm only lactating from my right nipple, my left nipple is inverted, should I go docs or leave it?
8171031 tn?1399327634 I'm 22 weeks and I just noticed in one cup of my bra it's wet... is this breast milk? And if so is it normal for it to start on one side?
Avatar n tn its normal, im 32 weeks and i have the same problem and have had since week 16
Avatar n tn I'm 22 weeks and my friend said she started lactating at 20 weeks....I haven't started yet and now I'm kind of worried I'm not producing milk....should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn So I just had my first experience with leaking and I'm 17wks today. When did everyone else start?
Avatar f tn You generally don't produce milk until typically 2-5 days post partum. It's possible to produce colostrum while pregnant. Some women leak and some don't. You could try to manually express some to see if you have any if you're really concerned.
Avatar f tn I am just wondering an estimated time that I should start producing milk and see it come out. And feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
