Macrobid (nitrofurantoin): This medicine is a life saver for the prevention of bladder and urinary tract infections. I used to get them all the time and they are so painful, but since I started taking Macrobid as a preventive I rarely get an infection.

nitrofurantoin: I had a bad reaction to this drug. Seemed like the flu, but was better the next day. Didn't know until the following day that this was a reaction to this drug.

nitrofurantoin: I suffered for almost two years with what I thought were regularly occurring bladder infections and all that goes with them, going to our family physician for repeated treatment. Until I sought a second opinion and was told I actually had a benign condition called interstitial cystitis which mimics all the symptoms of a bladder infection. For over a year now, after being prescribed Macrobid (Nitrofuron), the condition has been completely controlled through 1 capsule every morning. No more pain, no more symptoms. Feels like a miracle in a capsule to me.

Macrodantin (nitrofurantoin): I used to get 4-5 urinary tract infections (UTI) every time I had sex, before I started taking Macrodantin. I have been on it for 5 years and I have never had another UTI. They are "the magic pills".

Macrodantin (nitrofurantoin): Pills are very small and easy to swallow. I have no side effects from this medication. I use it to prevent serious urinary tract and bladder infections. I take it after sexual intercourse and it does prevent UTI's for me. I wouldn't want to live without this medication.
