Overview Niftran 100mg Capsule

Niftran 100mg capsules are a bacterial infection fighter. Prescribed for urinary tract infections, both treatment and prevention, this antibiotic works by eliminating the causative bacteria. However, it's ineffective against viral infections. Always adhere to your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. Taking it with food can mitigate nausea, a common side effect. Consistent daily timing maximizes effectiveness. Complete the full course, even with rapid symptom improvement; premature cessation risks infection recurrence or worsening. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur, typically resolving as your body adapts. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical consultation. Darkening of urine (yellow or brown) is a harmless, expected occurrence. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your physician of pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver, kidney, or heart conditions, or any antibiotic allergies.
