Urinary Tract Infection
"In 2011 a doctor prescribed this medication for my 82 year ol mother for a severe UTI... given in lieu of hospitalization. Within an hour of the first dose she became very ill, nauseated and vomiting. She was taken by ambulance to the hospital where her heart stopped.  During the next two days on life support her systems began to fail.  She died the morning of the second day.   Doctors would not contribute her sudden illness and death to the medication, but there is no other explanation.  We discovered later that this drug is not recommended for older people.  I can only say that a healthy woman died after taking one dose.  Her cause of death was listed as heart failure &amp; renal failure, but no cause for either.  Ask for an alternative treat"
