Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic primarily used in the form of 100mg modified-release capsules, ensuring a more consistent release of medication. This consistent release is particularly beneficial in providing sustained relief from symptoms and ensuring effective eradication of the infection.
Nitrofurantoin antibiotics are primarily used for treating and preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs), such as cystitis. It works effectively by killing the bacteria responsible for these infections. Symptoms of cystitis and UTIs include:
In addition to UTIs, Nitrofurantoin may also be used for other bacterial infections as determined by a doctor or pharmacist.
Nitrofurantoin functions by entering the bacterial cells and interfering with their chemical processes. It inhibits the synthesis of bacterial proteins, DNA, RNA, and cell walls, leading to the bacteria’s death. This stops the infection from spreading, allowing the immune system to eliminate the remaining bacteria.
The usual dose for treating UTIs in adults is either one 50mg or 100mg capsule taken twice a day for 3 days. For the prevention of further infections, a single 100mg capsule at bedtime may be recommended. Dosage may vary based on individual health conditions and the severity of the infection. Follow the prescribed dosage and do not exceed the maximum recommended dose unless advised by a doctor or pharmacist.
Nitrofurantoin antibiotics are suitable for adults and children over three months of age, particularly for those diagnosed with UTIs. However, it may not be appropriate for individuals with:
Pregnant women, especially in the final stages of pregnancy, and breastfeeding mothers should consult their doctor or pharmacist before using Nitrofurantoin.
For treating cystitis, the medication is typically taken for three days. The duration may be adjusted based on the severity of the infection and the individual’s response to treatment.
