Description
Nitrofurantoin 100 mg capsule is an antibiotic used for the treatment and prevention of urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by susceptible bacteria. It is available in a 100 mg strength, with 100 capsules per bottle. Nitrofurantoin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis and interfering with bacterial metabolism, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.
The drug is typically prescribed for the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections, including cystitis. Nitrofurantoin is generally reserved for lower urinary tract infections due to its limited systemic absorption. It is important to use the drug only for infections confirmed or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible microorganisms to avoid antibiotic resistance.
Common side effects of Nitrofurantoin include gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and headaches. Rare but serious side effects may include pulmonary reactions, liver toxicity, and peripheral neuropathy. Long-term use or high doses may increase the risk of these adverse effects. Regular monitoring is recommended in patients on prolonged therapy.
