I am concerned about my grandmother taking nicrofur mac daily as a regular medication for long term use. What are the side effects for long term use that may be different than normal side effects as a short term prescription.

Has she talked to her doctor about it recently?

It appears that people over age 65 are much more prone to experiencing severe side effects from this medication, it has gotten so concerning that many insurance companies have stopped covering it, due to the dangers.

You can see such side effects at the following link and they hit elderly people very intensely, it seems.
