Started Taking Macrobid after for UTI after Bactrim did not help and Cipro made me break out in hives. I've only taken 3 pills and have started getting headaches and waking up with severe neck pain. It's horrible I can hardly turn my head because my neck is so knotted up and stiff. I'm not taking any more because after 3 different antibiotics that have made me feel horrible, I need a break.

I had intense stomach pain and diarrhea after one dose. Called Dr. on call, she said it was a separate virus from my UTI, and to continue doses. After last dose 2 days ago, I broke out in terrible hives that itch uncontrollably, and looks like I have a chemical burn behind my ears and scalp. I thought it was bedbugs from a hotel, until my eye swelled up. Went to Dr. today, she said it might be allergic reaction to the Macrobid, but was weird that it came after all doses. I have also been sleeping for the past two days with NO energy...

I was prescribed Macrobid for a UTI I didn't even know I had. I toke my first dose on Sunday night, and woke up with severe flu like symptoms. I never call out sick at work. (once in 10 years) To day is Tuesday and I still feel so bad, extreme body aches, pains, dizziness, lack of energy, sneezzing, coughing, mucus, cannot sleep. I called my doctor immediately...my Dr. is on holiday, and no response from another physician. I am going to immediate care and stop taking Macrobid before hives and rash set in.

I recently started Macrobid and my right hand started itching and it broke out in hives. On the fourth day I forgot to take the medication and my hand felt a little better, however when I started again it got worst! I am stopping Macrobid. It is awaful and the doctor did not say anything about this. I had gone back for my hand three days later after starting Macrobid and the doctor did not say anything about side effects!

I was prescribed Macrobid for UTI. I had taken it for seven days and started itching like crazy and also hives . That was a month ago and still itching eveyday. I have to take benedyl everyday . Went back to dr. was told it will go away in 6 mths. I can't believe this drug is still on the market. The itching and hives are driving me crazy!
