Overview Nitroin Tablet SR

Nitroin SR tablets are a bacterial infection fighter. They're used to treat and prevent urinary tract infections caused by bacteria, working by eliminating the infectious organisms. However, they are ineffective against viral infections. Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and treatment duration. Taking the medication with food can lessen nausea, a possible side effect. For optimal results, take it at the same time daily and continue the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve rapidly. Premature discontinuation may lead to relapse or worsening of the infection. Some individuals experience temporary side effects such as nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea; these usually subside as the body adjusts. Contact your physician if these persist or are bothersome. A harmless side effect is darkening of urine to yellow or brown. Before starting Nitroin SR, inform your doctor of any pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver, kidney, or heart conditions, or antibiotic allergies.
