How does Macrobid (nitrofurantoin) treat kidney infections?
Is Macrobid safe to use during pregnancy?
Macrobid should be used with caution during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, as some studies have suggested that it may increase the risk of birth defects. If possible, alternative antibiotics should be considered. However, in some cases, Macrobid may be the best option and should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
