Hi,

Nitrofurantoin can be used safely in this issue, with additional guidelines.

- Drink more liquids in sessions.
- Add intake of proton pump inhibitor as omeprazole morning and evening with sips of water on empty stomach.
- Cranberry sachet once daily in a glass of drinking water.
- Follow above measures for 5 days, consult later your doctor as per the progress of the condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
