Who qualifies for treatment
Our doctors consider Fosfomycin primarily for uncomplicated urinary tract infections (acute cystitis) in eligible adult patients. The doctor will assess your medical history and symptoms through the online questionnaire to ensure it's safe and appropriate. They look for:
- Typical symptoms of uncomplicated cystitis (e.g., painful urination, frequent urge to urinate, lower abdominal discomfort).
- No signs of a complicated UTI (e.g., fever, flank pain, nausea, vomiting).
- No history of kidney problems or other significant medical conditions that would contraindicate Fosfomycin.
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Not a male patient (Fosfomycin is generally not recommended for male UTIs in this context).
The doctor's clinical assessment is paramount to ensure patient safety and effective treatment.
What Fosfomycin actually does (and doesn't do)
Fosfomycin is an antibiotic specifically designed to treat bacterial infections in the urinary tract. It works by interfering with the bacterial cell wall synthesis, effectively killing the bacteria causing the infection. A single dose is often sufficient for uncomplicated UTIs.
It acts relatively quickly, with symptom improvement often noted within 24-48 hours. However, it's crucial to understand that Fosfomycin is not a broad-spectrum antibiotic for all infections. It is not suitable for kidney infections (pyelonephritis), complicated UTIs, or sexually transmitted infections (STIs) presenting with urinary symptoms.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Fosfomycin can cause side effects. Common side effects are usually mild and may include:
- Nausea
- Diarrhoea
- Headache
- Dizziness
These typically resolve on their own. You should seek immediate medical attention if you experience:
- Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
- Severe diarrhoea (watery or bloody), even if it occurs several weeks after treatment.
- New or worsening symptoms that suggest the infection is not clearing or is spreading.
Always follow your doctor's advice and read the patient information leaflet.
