Mild infection. Took meds for the 7 days prescribed. Cleared infection. 9th day chills & stiff back. 10th days hives. I think this is a delayed reaction. Doing OK now. Will avoid this med in future.

Wow, I only came on here to see the name of the medication.....and I am really surprised that every review is bad. I am afraid to say that I have none of the problems everyone is complaining about and it has helped my UTI. Weird. And I don't necessarily eat when I take it. I take only 1 in the morning and 1 at night (100myl) for 5 days. I am almost done with them.

THIS MED. WAS A COMPLETE WASTE FOR ME TO TAKE! I HAD SEVERAL OF THE SIDE EFFECTS AND GOT NO RELIEF FROM THE INFECTION AFTER 5 DAYS. IT GAVE ME STOMACH PROBLEMS, A HEADACHE, BLURRY VISION, AND I WAS ON THE TOILET ABOUT EVERY 1/2 HR. I WOULD NOT RECOMEND THIS MEDICATION TO ANYONE THAT I LIKED

i am a cancer patient along with many other illness's. i was given this drug for a kidney infection and it made me so sick i could not quit vomiting and i also did some really weird things that upset my husband. iwould wake up of night time and be walking into the closet or the walls, i would fall down,i would rather keep the kidney infection than to ever take this drug again. i am allergic to sulfa drugs. i also read on here that it is precribed for bladder infections, i didnt have a bladder infection but a kidney infection i would not recomend this drug to to be used for anything.Read More Read Less

This medicine was horrible. I have never had a bad reaction to any medicine I've ever taken till now. They say take with food. They're not kidding. If I didn't have a few bites of food in me before taking this pill I would immediately feel queasy and faint. Awful awful medicine. I will never take this again.

while this medication has helped prevent any further infections (7 since surgery in august) It makes me so weak and sick to my stomach. Where do we go from here. I stopped medication after 75 days and on 4th day another infection in the making.
