That is a normal dosage for treating a UTI, however, at your age you may experience more severe side effects than someone younger.

The FDA lists other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

How are you feeling, now? Has there been any change?
