Fosfomycin for Bladder Infection "Lower UTI symptoms subsided 24-48 hours after taking Monurol. One dose is good for 3 days. Today is the 4th day and I don't need to take a second dose as I am relieved. However, the side effect is bothersome since I took this. I have extreme vaginal itching. Also slight abdominal tenderness and minor diarrhea. But the vaginal itching is problematic. I can't focus and can't sleep. Did anyone experience this? Is this normal? How long will I wait until this goes away? What can I do?"

Fosfomycin for Bladder Infection "Took it for a bladder infection. Two days later, had really bad abdominal pain. I started shivering, then collapsed. Woke up soaking wet with sweat, had to call an ambulance. A week has passed since taking it, along with probiotics, and I still have to run to the toilet with loose diarrhea."

For Bladder Infection "Used orally for UTI, and all the side effects just started to appear day by day, and instead of becoming healthy, I deteriorated. Diarrhea, abdominal and back pain, nausea, chest pain, dysuria, sleeplessness just started to aggregate, and now I am in the most miserable condition. Won't recommend at all."

For Bladder Infection "Took this for a mild bladder infection and initially felt improved. But then stomach cramps, abdominal discomfort to the point of serious pain, nausea-literally kept getting new symptoms and feeling worse and worse. And I’ve still got the bladder symptoms. Would never recommend this."
