How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the 35 € consultation fee.
2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate, your fee is refunded automatically — no risk, you pay nothing.

Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Nitrofurantoin only for uncomplicated urinary tract infections (acute cystitis) in eligible adult patients. The doctor reviews your medical history and current symptoms through the online questionnaire to ensure it's the right treatment for you. This includes assessing for typical cystitis symptoms like painful urination, frequent urges, and lower abdominal discomfort, while ruling out more complicated conditions or contraindications.

What Nitrofurantoin actually does (and doesn't do)

Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic specifically designed to treat bacterial infections in the urinary tract. It works by preventing bacteria from growing and multiplying in your urine. This helps to clear up the infection and relieve symptoms. It is effective against many common bacteria that cause UTIs, but it is not a broad-spectrum antibiotic for all types of infections. You should start feeling better within 1-2 days, but it's crucial to complete the full course as prescribed to prevent the infection from returning.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Nitrofurantoin can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and headache. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious, but rare, side effects can include allergic reactions, liver problems, or lung issues. You should stop taking Nitrofurantoin and seek immediate medical attention if you experience chest pain, difficulty breathing, persistent fever, severe headache, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or severe rash.
