Nitrofur Macr 100 Mg Generic

Is there a substitute for this drug? I just paid 63.00 at the pharmacy for a 30 day supply. Can't afford that, is there another drug I could use that is very similar?

REPORT

Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic, it is used to treat infections.

Have you tried asking your doctor for an alternative?

This is the generic, the name brands are Furdantin, Macrobid and Macrodantin and, from what I'm seeing for the dosage, this is about the average price.

How long do you have to take it?

Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Just started on NITROFUR-MACR today and would like to know about the reaction with coumadin. Usually I always ask for the brand, but allowed the pharmacist to give me the generic this time. We'll see; I am leary after reading some patient reactions to this medicine.

Nancy, I've checked several different resources and haven't found any possible interactions listed, between Nitrofurantoin and Coumadin, but you should check with your doctor or pharmacist to be certain.
