Active against most strains of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp., Salmonella typhi, Salmonella paratyphi A, Salmonella paratyphi B, Shigella sonnei, Proteus, Enterobacter spp.
Indications
Infectious and inflammatory diseases of the urinary tract, caused by microorganisms sensitive to the drug:
pyelitis; pyelonephritis; cystitis; urethritis;
Prevention of infections during urological operations or examination (cystoscopy, catheterization, etc.).
Composition
active substance: 100 mg nitrofurantoin

Dosage and Administration
Inside, drinking plenty of water, adults - 0.1-0.15 g, 3-4 times a day; children - at the rate of 5-8 mg / kg / day, the daily dose is divided into 4 doses. Higher doses for adults: single - 0.3 g, daily - 0.6 g.
For acute urinary tract infections, the duration of treatment is 7-10 days.
Preventive, anti-relapse treatment continues, depending on the nature of the disease, from 3 to 12 months. The daily dose in this case is 1-2 mg / kg.
Adverse reactions
Nausea, vomiting, allergic reactions (lupus-like syndrome, arthralgia, myalgia, anaphylaxis, chills, eosinophilia, rash), dizziness, headache, asthenia, nystagmus, drowsiness, interstitial changes in the lungs, broncho-obstructive syndrome, nonstagmus, drowsiness, interstitial changes in the lungs, broncho-obstructive syndrome, nonstagmus, drowsiness, interstitial changes in the lungs, broncho-obstructive syndrome, nonstagmus, drowsiness, interstitial changes in the lungs, broncho-obstructive syndrome, dysfunction, dysphagia, dysfunction , hepatitis, cholestatic syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis, pseudomembranous enterocolitis, rarely - abdominal pain, diarrhea.
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity, chronic renal failure;
- heart failure II – III century;
- cirrhosis of the liver;
- chronic hepatitis;
- deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase;
- acute porphyria;
- pregnancy and lactation;
- children's age up to 3 years.
Drug interactions
The simultaneous use of nalidixic acid and antacids containing magnesium trisilikat reduces the antibacterial effect.
Incompatibility with fluoroquinolones.
Drugs that block tubular secretion, reduce the antibacterial effect (by reducing the concentration of nitrofurantoin in the urine) and increase the toxicity (increased concentration in the blood) of the drug.
Pregnancy and Lactation
The use of the drug during pregnancy and during breastfeeding is contraindicated.
Special instructions
Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and other mechanisms that require high concentration of attention
During the period of treatment, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration and psychomotor speed (with the appearance of dizziness and drowsiness).
Overdosage
Symptoms: vomiting.
Treatment: the intake of large amounts of fluid leads to an increase in the excretion of the drug in the urine. Effective dialysis.
