Nitrofurantoin-macro side effects?By cee cee from chicago.Il on November 29, 2005 Category: Nitrofurantoin My daughter is 7 months pregnant . We are concerned about the side affects she is experiencing from the medication she was given to treat a urinary tract infection. It is called Nitrofurantoin-macro . Her OB/gyn does not seem to be alarmed by her complaints but we are. She is experiencing blood in her stool, spotting from the vagina, cramps and bloating pain in her lower uteral area and is completely lathargic. Prior to taking this medication she was doing yoga 4-5 times per week, working full time as a massage therapist , has had only a 13lb. weight gain , in other words very energetic and healthy. She has 5 days left of this perscription and the doctor tells her to finish it up or her infection will worsen. What can you tell us about this drug or alternatives? We are worried about the reactions, all she wants to do is sleep because she feels so aweful. Please respond quickly. Thank you,, Cee Cee Ryder |
Just a patient I started taking this medicine on Friday 4/20/2007. I started taking it because I was experiencing abdominal pains and pains in lower back. My Doctor prescribed me this medicine and the next day it made my bleeding become very heavy and huge clotting. I thought i was hemmoraging. i dont know what to do I was so scared. My Doctor told me to finish it until it was gone, which I did but I don't believe it helped me whatsever. Please tell me what I should do about this?
