Chronic UTI's
Last year was prescribed
Macrobid
, but ceftriaxone, clindamycin & monural are used in people with kidney disease & lower egfr. Just trying to avoid any further decline in function. I see urology next month. Hopefully they can offer a preventive solution.

Help!
I'm currently on yet another course of
Macrobid
- after finishing the last course a week ago and symptoms and leucocytes ++on dip yesterday. The
Macrobid
makes me feel unwell and sometimes I vomit after taking them. I've managed to get a face to face appointment with GP but not for 3 weeks.

macrobid
…. paracetamol doesn’t even touch the SPOT😂 so i’ve been let down again… said he doesn’t even think i need a gyne appointment!!

ongoing UTI
before Christmas I was treated with a 3 day course of
macrobid
. UTI continued and was worse 2 days after finishing antibiotics. I’ve just had a 3 day course of trimethoprim and I still have UTI symptoms .MSU was borderline to bacteria and positive to blood. I repeat this on Friday.

UTI and antibiotics
We went to our GP and the nurse prescribed
MacroBID
100mg (Nitrofurantoin). He has been taking them twice a day just after meals. This is his third day and there seems to be very little improvement . He is still complaining of pain when passing urine.

Sudden spike of liver enzymes!
The only thing I can think of I took
Macrobid
100mg twice daily for a week for UTI a month ago. I am soo concerned and anxious now and waiting to get an ultrasound in 4 days and more blood work. Have any of you had a spike of liver enzymes right after a month of normal blood test?

Macrobid. How long to feel real benefits?
Been given
Macrobid
for UTI. Taken four doses so far, out of fourtenn. Thought I was getting better yesterday, but today not so good, still general burning and frequency. Is this typical? Really felt optimistic yesterday, but now feel dismal, tired and uncomfortable.

Nitrofurantoin (macrobid) and vit b12 deficiency
Hi all, I recently had a 3 day course of Nitrofurantoin (
macrobid
) for a UTI. The gp also requested routine blood tests Which have today indicated Serum Vitamin B12 levels below the threshold- 169 ng/L Range:187 - 883 ng/L Does anyone know if
macrobid
can influence your B12 levels?

Bleeding with IBS
I wasn't having any particular problems until late December last year when I had a kidney infection for 3 weeks and went through
MacroBID
, Cefalexin and Co-Amociclav to get rid of it (Co-Amociclav did the trick in the end, thank goodness).

Chronic prostatitis and cycling
The UTI clears up readily with
Macrobid
, or UriFos. But the lingering dull ache continues intermittently. I don't have any classic prostate and urinary or sexual issues and a recent PSA test shows a reading of 1.2 - for what thats worth.

Update on Kidney Infection
I was given a 3 day supply of Nitrofurantoin 100mg (
MacroBID
) and it did get rid of some symptoms. However it made my back pain unbearable and I was still peeing blood, so I called my GP and got switched to Cefalexin 500g for 7 days. I finish that course of antibiotics tomorrow.

UTI infections
I was on amoxicillian but it gave me the runs so they switched me to
macrobid
and I have only taken 2 so far. The doc office also said I am pooping out the infection which i never thought of. But you can hear my stomach making sounds and I feel like I’m bloated.
