What is Utirantin 100 mg Tablet
Utirantin 100 mg Tablet is a Urinary Tract Infection antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections of the urinary tract. It contains Nitrofurantoin 100 mg, and this composition helps manage bladder-focused bacterial infections.
Utirantin 100 mg is manufactured by Vasu Organics Pvt Ltd. Nitrofurantoin belongs to the nitrofuran class of antibiotics and acts as a urinary antibacterial medicine. Nitrofurantoin is an FDA-approved salt for Urinary Tract Infections, and Utirantin is manufactured in GMP-compliant, WHO-approved facilities.
This Nitrofurantoin tablet works by entering bacteria in the urine and damaging key bacterial proteins and DNA. This action stops bacterial growth and helps clear infection from the urinary tract.
The main Utirantin 100 tablet uses include bacterial Urinary Tract Infection (UTI), especially bladder infection caused by susceptible bacteria. It may also be used as an E. coli UTI treatment when a doctor confirms the cause.
The usual Utirantin 100 tablet dosage depends on age, infection severity, kidney function, and medical history. It should be taken with food and swallowed whole with water. If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless the next dose is near. Do not take two doses together. In case of overdose, contact a doctor immediately.
Common Utirantin 100 tablet side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, and loss of appetite. Consult a doctor if these effects continue or worsen. People with kidney disease, liver disease, lung problems, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or antibiotic allergy should seek medical advice before use.
