1009876 tn?1326490077 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. I am just scared this UTI will comeback with avengence. Should I make an appointment with my doctor to double check?

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 What Were You Prescribed? I Was Prescribed Nitrofurantoin Macro. & Does Or Can A UTI Effect Your HCG Levels?

Avatar m tn Hi , Gabapin (Gabapentin also called Neurontin) is a neurologic drug probably given for the tingling. But the Nitrofurantoin has tingling as a less common side affect. So it will probably go away when you stop the antibiotic. If it is working she can stay on it until it is finished then the tingling will go away and she can get off the Gabapin too. Gabapin causes sleepiness or tireness as well.
Avatar f tn There is always a risk for side effects,interactions or allergic reactions, so please make sure both meds are suitable for you by asking a physician.
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 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.
1279758 tn?1282813393 If the highest sensitivity is to nitrofurantoin then you can take these tablets, 50 to 100 mg thrice or 4 times a day. If you get the longer acting versions then you can take 100 mg twice a day. There are several brands available: brand names; Macrobid, Furadantin, Macrodantin, Nitro Macro and Urantoin. A full course is seven days. Otherwise you will have to take a combination of antibiotics of lower sensitivity as prescribed. Nitrofurantoin is contraindicated if you have kidney problems.

Avatar f tn Recently I have started several different medications: -omeprazol for gastritis -nitrofurantoin for a uti -adderall for adhd, but i've taken it in the past and never had headaches or nausea My brief online research indicates that omeprazol can cause headaches, but my headaches/nausea started after I began nitrofurantoin. I haven't seen anything indicating that headaches are a common side effect, but nausea is.
Avatar f tn m in my first trimester and I have a urinary track infection, and a doctor at a hospital prescribed me Nitrofurantoin 100 mg , 4 times a day, of course the side effects are worse in me, I guess because of my pregnancy, but I need to know if it's really safe for my baby, I'm not having any problems in my pregnancy, and I don't have any spotting, thanks God. But I had a miscarriage before and I'm very concerned about any pills doctors make me take.

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 ?
