I get constant UTIs. I have for 5 or 6 years now and my urologist recently gave me this medication to take "as needed" in order to prevent full blown UTIs and in order to prevent me from going to see him every single month, if not multiple times a month.
The medication works great and quickly. I used to take amoxicillin but it is not very strong and no longer works for most people so I needed something more effective. And since I am allergic to other antibiotics most frequently prescribed for UTIs, such as Bactrim, and macro, I had only a few options left. The only side effects I notice is that I get some discharge.
It's very effective, but if you are a female and sexually active, you must be very careful since this medication can cause birth defects!
