CompositionUribid Tablet is used to treat bacterial urinary tract infections (UTIs) of the lower urinary tract, such as acute uncomplicated cystitis. It relieves painful symptoms such as a burning sensation during urination, abdominal discomfort, and a frequent urge to urinate, while clearing the underlying infection.
It contains nitrofurantoin, an antibiotic that concentrates specifically in the urine and works by damaging bacterial DNA and other essential cellular components. Because it acts mainly within the urinary tract, it is effective against common UTI-causing bacteria such as E. coli while having limited effects elsewhere in the body.
Complete the full course exactly as prescribed by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve early, to make sure the infection is fully cleared and to help reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance. Take this tablet with food or milk to improve absorption and reduce the chance of stomach upset.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have any kidney problems, are pregnant or near term, or are taking other medicines. Your doctor may recommend regular monitoring if you are on long-term treatment for recurrent infections.
