ways to enhance the performance of Macrobid
how do you know if your UTI is uncomplicated
to sum this up

Content: note: lower UTI and uncomplicated UTI are pretty much (although not exactly) the same as a community-acquired UTI. if you are a woman and you have an uncomplicated UTI (lower UTI), then Macrobid is most likely is going to work on you and it will rid you of your UTI, you should feel your symptoms are getting better within 2-3 days. even if your symptoms get better you should continue the whole Macrobid course. Macrobid is given to UTI cases where other first-line antibiotics have found resistance or difficulty in treating them. see nowadays first-line antibiotics like ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim (septrin) are facing increased bacterial resistance meaning some UTI cases are not getting treated by them. on the other hand, Macrobid (nitrofurantoin) has much lower bacterial resistance rates than Cipro and septrin and it’s an old antibiotic discovered in the ’50s and since that time it got very little bacterial resistance cases. according to the NCBI website, the probability of the E. coli bacteria (the bacteria responsible for about 80% of the UTI cases) to be resistant to nitrofurantoin is 1-2%. also, WebMD agrees on that too. if you are that unlucky to be from that 1-2% then don’t worry, there is an antibiotic called fosfomycin in which also very rare resistance cases have been found and it can be used to treat your UTI.
