Some patients experience temporary side effects such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, typically resolving as the body acclimates. Report persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor. A harmless, expected side effect is the discoloration of urine to dark yellow or brown. Prior to commencing Niftran 100mg capsules, inform your doctor of pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver, kidney, or heart conditions, or any antibiotic allergies.
