Nitrofurantoin is an antibacterial medicine that works against susceptible bacteria responsible for certain urinary tract infections. It reaches effective concentrations in the urine and is commonly used for lower urinary tract infections, including uncomplicated cystitis, when the causative bacteria are susceptible. The sustained-release formulation is designed to release the active ingredient gradually. NITROFORTIME SR 100 is intended for use according to the dosage and duration prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional. NITROFORTIME SR 100 should not be used for kidney infections or other systemic infections unless specifically directed by a doctor.
How to use
Take NITROFORTIME SR 100 Tablets exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with sufficient water. Do not crush, chew, or break the sustained-release tablet, as this may affect the intended release of the medicine. Take the medicine with food or milk if advised, as this can improve absorption and help reduce stomach upset. Complete the full course prescribed by your healthcare professional, even if your symptoms improve earlier.
