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 started taking Macrobid 100mg for 5 days and my right hand broke out in hives and is very itchy! On the fourth day I forgot to take the pills and my hand was not that bad, however when I started again it got worst. I am stopping Macrobid!

I also was prescribed Macrobid for a UTI and after six days of it I too began itching and had hives and then was hospitalized for 3 days due to the reaction.

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!

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.
