Overview Utab 100mg Tablet SR

Utab 100mg SR tablets are a bacterial infection fighter. They're prescribed for urinary tract infections, both treating and preventing them by eliminating the responsible bacteria. However, this medication is ineffective against viral infections. Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and treatment duration. Taking it with food can mitigate nausea, a potential side effect. Consistent daily timing maximizes effectiveness; complete the prescribed course, even with rapid symptom improvement, to avoid relapse or worsening of the infection. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are possible temporary side effects, typically resolving as your body adapts. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical consultation. A harmless, though noticeable, side effect is darkening of urine to yellow or brown. Before commencing treatment, inform your physician about pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver, kidney, or heart conditions, and any antibiotic allergies.
