I have been taking Macrobid for almost a week and have Extreme na...

I, too, have been having trouble with this antibiotic and Cipro too. They wind up hurting my stomach making it cramping up and deprives me of sleep. I will not take this anymore even though because of a kidney stone I have, I keep getting these UTI's and I am sick of them!
There should be something else that's safer for UTI patients to take.
I know this won't be my last UTI but I won't take this or Cipro anymore.
The medicine makes you feel WORSE than better.

I was reading about some of your side effects and they are starting to worry me. I'm taking Macrobid for UTI (day 4) and I am so nauseous I feel like I'm pregnant! Anyway, I am writing this post to remind people about Clostridium dificile, which can cause sever diarrhea after a course of antibiotics, such as macrobid. My sis got this and had diarrhea for 3 weeks before finally going to see a doctor. She had to go on a different antibiotic to kill the C. dificile. Always take probiotics when on antibiotics and monitor your diarrhea very carefully - don't let it go on for too long because C. dif can be life-threatening.
