PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTION
PHARMACODYNAMIC PROPERTIES
Nitrofurantoin is an antibacterial medicine for specific urinary tract
infections.
Nitrofurantoin exerts bacteriostatic activity against many strains of:
_Escherichia coli _
_Enterococci _
Anti-bacterial activity is higher in acidic urine.
Many strains of _Enterobacter_ species and _Klebsiella_ species are
resistant to nitrofurantoin.
It is not active against most strains of _Proteus_ and _Pseudomonas_
species.
PHARMACOKINETIC PROPERTIES
Nitrofurantoin is rapidly and completely absorbed from the
gastrointestinal tract. Anti-
bacterial concentrations are not achieved in plasma following
ingestion of recommended
doses because of rapid elimination.
INDICATIONS
MACRODANTIN is indicated for the treatment and prevention of
recurrence of
uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections, e.g. pyelonephritis,
pyelitis and cystitis.
It is not indicated for the treatment of associated renal, cortical or
perinephric abscesses.
