Different parts of your urinary tract, including your bladder (cystitis), urethra (urethritis), or kidneys (kidney infection) can be affected by urinary tract infections (UTIs). Bladder infections are very common and not normally serious if treated quickly.

What are the symptoms of a UTI?

A urinary tract infection (UTI) may cause the following symptoms:

– A burning sensation or pain when peeing (dysuria)
– Needing to pee frequently especially at night (nocturia)
– Urine that appears cloudy, dark, or smells strongly
– Quick or very urgent desire to urinate
– Having more frequent urination
– Blood in your urine

How is a UTI treated?

Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic which is used to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs), including cystitis and kidney infections.

When nitrofurantoin is taken, the body will filter it from your blood and into your urine. The medicine is concentrated at the site of infection, which is useful if you have a urinary tract infection.

How long is it taken for?

You will usually need to take nitrofurantoin for 3 to 7 days if you are taking it to treat a urinary tract infection.
