Overview Urifur 100mg Tablet SR

Sulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim 100mg Extended-Release Tablet combats bacterial infections. Specifically indicated for urinary tract infections, it eradicates the causative bacteria. However, it's ineffective against viral infections. Dosage and duration should strictly adhere to your physician's instructions. Taking it with food can mitigate nausea, a potential side effect. Consistent daily administration maximizes efficacy. Complete the prescribed course; premature cessation risks relapse or infection exacerbation. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are possible, typically resolving spontaneously. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical attention. Urine discoloration (dark yellow or brown) is a harmless, expected occurrence. Prior to initiating treatment, inform your doctor of pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver, kidney, or heart conditions, or any antibiotic allergies.
