Avatar m tn ve also got a case of epididymitis (nuts on fire). Current antibiotic is Nitrofurantoin Macro. Urologist told me to come back in 3 months while my health and quality of life *****!!! What are some other options for treatment? Original culture was Coagulese negative Staph.
1009876 tn?1326490077 I took this medication as prescribed. 1, twice a day for 3 days. I had my last pill with dinner yesterday. But the infection is still causing a small amout of pain during urination. And I am still experiencing pains in my abdomen. Is this normal? Normally when I take medication, I feel better before I'm even done the pills. This infection came on suddenly, and got worse by the hour until I took the second pill. My urine is still quite dark, but I know this is a side effect of the medication.
Avatar m tn can i empty a capsule of nitrofurantoin macro in a spoonful of applesauce to take it?

Avatar n tn I went to a urolgist and he put me on nitrofurantoin-macro. He also scoped by penis to the bladder and found it to be clean on the inside. Still no change. Do I have a virus that will go away or is there something else out there that is worse.? my symptoms are mild to medium discomfort in the penis, no discharge, a dull but persistent low pain in the scrotum. I have not had sex with anyone since this encounter so I am not passing it to another partner. Any thoughts.
Avatar f tn 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. And from day one, from the time I started having these pains my partner has never complained of any pains showing of any symptoms related to the infection. How can I go about this, I also did a scrotum scan. But seemed to be normal.
Avatar m tn A couple of weeks later I developed a urinary tract infection. Urologist prescribed nitrofurantoin for the infection. Immediatedly after starting the antibiotic my ears gradually starting feeling clogged. Now, two weeks later, they are both very clogged (no wax buildup) and I can barely hear. Logic tells me the ear clogging is somehow connected to the nitrofurantoin. Has anyone ever experienced this or heard of this happening? Will this clogging go away by itself?
Avatar f tn They precscribed me nitrofurantoin and I’ve been taking it for about 5 days now and my symptoms are pretty much gone, though I’ve been told to keep taking the pills for the whole 7 days. However, the first time I took it the day I got them they made my stomach hurt a lot, but I assumed that was due to the fact that I hadn’t eaten all day, and so every other time I’ve taken it I’ve eaten something with it and I’ve felt fine. After that, maybe the 3rd day, I started to get diarrhea.
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 f tn Im just very anxious sence my last pregnancy my baby didnt developed he stoped growing at 6 weeks ...well my question is does the medication nitrofurantoin mono mac makes the baby development stop? does it interfear with my pregnancy? do i have anything to worrie about?
Avatar m tn Prolactinomas are typically treated with medication and even with a macro adenoma, they usually try medication first to see if the tumor will shrink. Did you get copies of her first MRI before surgery to know where her tumor sits?
Avatar n tn Most uncomplicated UTIs can be treated with oral antibiotics such as trimethoprim, cephalosporins, nitrofurantoin, or a fluoroquinolone (e.g., ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin). Trimethoprim is probably the most widely used antibiotic for UTIs and is usually taken for 7 days. It is often recommended that trimethoprim be taken at night to ensure maximal urinary concentrations and increase its effectiveness.
Avatar m tn It also says that the colony count of the bacteris is 1,00,000 cfu/ml. Hence, doctor prescribed some medicines like Uribid with nitrofurantoin in it, Prothiaden M, Montemac FX for allergy and Hifenac-P for fever and also Cital syrup for UTI. My mother continued the course for one week, now fever and tiredness have decreased, but the burning sensation continues. Is this mixture of tablets fine, or any other suggestion or recommendations for treating this urinary tract infection of K.Oxytoca.
Avatar f tn Hi All, I recently I took Nitrofurantoin 100 mg for a UTI and broke out in severely itchy rash, had vomiting, nausea and diarrhea. I took 2 doses and gyno doctor asked me to stop taking this medicine. I have taken this medication several times before but I listened to my doctor and stopped ASAP. Symptoms disappeared except I still have diarrhea 4 days later, yellow in color. I also have pain under right rib. I’m scared in pastx I have had gastritis, diverticulosis & had CT that showed 2.

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 f tn I understand your concern. Nitrofurantoin can indeed result to neuropathies as one of its side effects. This can happen anytime during or post treatment. It varies in severity and very uncommonly may become irreversible. I suggest that you have this looked at by your doctor or a neurologist to assess for other causes. Tests may be in order such as nerve conduction velocity or electromyography to pinpoint the cause. Also report to your doctor any changes in symptoms or progression.
Avatar f tn I've been told I have a UTI and was given Macrobid/Nitrofurantoin. I have taken 3 tablets but out of curiosity I looked them up on the internet and it said some women have lost their babies days after taking the tablets. Has anyone taken these and had a healthy pregnancy?!
Avatar f tn Hi All recently I took Nitrofurantoin 100 mg for UTI and broke out in itchy rash, vomiting and diarrhea. Since the doc asked me to stop taking it. I have taken this med before I listened to my doctor and stopped. Symptoms disappeared but I still have diarrhea yellow in color. I also have full pain under right rib. I’m scared in pastxive had gastritis, diverticulosis & had CT that showed 2.6cm cavernous hemangioma in the lateral segment of the left hepatic lobe (liver).
Avatar m tn Thinking it might be a UTI I went to the DR, I was prescribed Ciproflaxacin, no real change after 7 days, then Nitrofurantoin. It felt like symptoms subsided the week after but came back again. I’ve been using clotrimazole cream to help with irritation, but doesn’t seem to do much. I have developed tiny irregular pimples around the glans. The DR was not concerned about these. Now, 7 weeks later, my penis tip still feels a bit irritated and glans a bit red.
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 I was 24 weeks with my first UTI.... ghe 1st medication didnt work but the 2nd did... I dont remember what it was called but I was on it for 10 days...
365714 tn?1292199108 All you have to do is comment on a picture. Type more than 3 lines and it will get cut off. Here's an example: My comment (full version): Two Bees Cuddle: I took this with my old camera that didn't have macro capacities. To get a macro shot I used a hand magnifying lens and focused it on the subject. The odd thing about it is, if you know something about bees, these actually are two male bees...I guess gay bees can cuddle too.
Avatar f tn now, on the 21st may this week my partner had a uti. doc gave her 3 days of nitrofurantoin but it still hasnt gone. im worried ive infected her with something, but not sure about the timescales. am i going crazy, i was obssessed that I had gonorhhea until the test came back negative. now im thinking ive caught something else! she had no symptoms before this week.
1835327 tn?1318259746 Especially with a larger tumor, you would be taking medication FIRST to reduce the size of the tumor and only if the medication does not work (which is less than 10% of cases) or that the side effects are intolerable - that surgery is done. You also need to see a neuro-opthamolagist (something I just cannot spell) so you can get visual fields and a very thorough eye exam. You really want to be at a pituitary center.
