For Urinary Tract Infection "I was prescribed 100 mg of this medication, Macrobid, for UTI, and each time I take it, I feel worse off. I am either experiencing a fever or chills, and I am extremely nauseous for hours on end with a loss of appetite. I am also having symptoms of indigestion and constant diarrhea. This is an awful medication, and in the wrong hands, practitioners may be prescribing this to the wrong type of patient. I have 1 more day left to take this, and I don't think I can. It debilitates me."

For Urinary Tract Infection "I have taken 3 Macrobid pills so far for UTI. I am achy in my back and neck and have a headache. I have also had chills and maybe a slight fever. UTI is feeling better already but not liking the side effects of this medication. Trying to determine if I should call the doctor and ask for something else."

For Bladder Infection "Have had this 3 times for UTI. First two times no problems at all. Third time thought something was seriously wrong with me! I woke up with severe chills, pounding heart, joint pain, soles of my feet feeling like they were on fire, wheezing, and trouble getting a breath. This was after only two tablets. Have never had such a bad reaction."

For Urinary Tract Infection "DO NOT TAKE THIS!!! DO NOT TAKE THIS!!! After the second pill - I had diarrhea that would not stop and eventually turned into burning, watery stool. Severe stomach cramps, fever, chills, nausea, dizziness. I stopped taking Macrobid after 3 pills, but my diarrhea did not stop. I could not eat or drink anything without going to the toilet. I fainted for the first time ever while trying to get back to my bed. I went to the ER for dehydration, and the doctor prescribed Zofran. Macrobid is now on my allergy list."
