Nitrofurantoin And Penicillin At The Same Time?
Updated
Beth Says:
I am on day 3 of nitrofurantion 100mgx4tpd for kidney infection. I have now taken a nasty throat/gland infection and have been prescribed penicillin 500mgx4tpd. Can I take both together or do I need to finish the antibiotic for kidney infection first?

I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between the two antibiotics and such medications are often prescribed together, if someone has severe infections that are known to respond to different kinds of antibiotics.
Learn more Nitrofurantoin details here.
Learn more Penicillin details here.
However, you should double check with your doctor or pharmacist to be certain.
Are there any other questions or comments?
