Nitrofurantoin treats and prevents uncomplicated urinary tract infections.
Finish the prescribed course of the medicine, even if you start to feel better. Stopping it early may make the infection come back and harder to treat.
Take it with food to avoid nausea, which is a common side effect.
It can turn your urine a dark yellow or brown colour. This is normal and nothing to worry about.
Do not take it for longer or more often than prescribed by your doctor.
