When Nitroxolin is used for the treatment of cystitis, it is necessary to adhere strictly to the time of intake and to consume a lot of fluid in order to minimize the side effects.
Tablets from cystitis Nitroxoline - contraindications
Unfortunately, pregnant and lactating women also suffer from cystitis , but during these periods, the drug is prohibited. During gestation, Nitroxoline penetrates the placenta and may lead to the development of abnormalities in the fetus. When breastfeeding the product enters breast milk, which is also undesirable, so taking the drug is allowed, but it is recommended in this case, temporarily stop feeding.
In addition, Nitroxoline should not be used for cystitis if there are concomitant diseases such as: cataract , chronic renal failure, cirrhosis, neuritis. To treat such patients, other means are used.
Tablets should be taken during meals and well washed with water. The daily norm is 600-800 mg of the drug, which must be divided into three or four receptions, the interval between which should be at least six hours. The course of treatment is designed for 10-14 days. It is necessary to closely monitor the dosage of the drug, not exceeding it - a maximum of 1.2 grams per adult.
It is necessary not to interrupt the prescribed course of treatment as soon as there are improvements, otherwise a relapse of the disease or its transition to a chronic form that can be treated very hard, because the body develops resistance to cystitis drugs, is possible.
