Overview

Nitrofurantoin 50 mg is an antibiotic medication primarily used to treat and prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria in the urinary tract. Nitrofurantoin is highly effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria that cause infections in the bladder, kidneys, and other parts of the urinary system.

  • Acute urinary tract infections (UTIs)

Dosage Information
  • Typical adult dose: 50 mg to 100 mg, taken every 6 hours, or as directed by your healthcare provider
