You can request and pay for a Nitrofurantoin prescription online. As Nitrofurantoin is a prescription only medication, even when using an online doctor, you will need a prescription before you buy Nitrofurantoin. You should never buy Nitrofurantoin without a prescription from a regulated online doctor service with professionally qualified and registered clinicians.

When using our service you will need to complete a cystitis consultation, and if suitable, one of our clinicians will prescribe the treatment. You can then pay for your prescription online.

If your symptoms worsen at any time  or do not improve within 48 Hours you should see a doctor in person as you may need further testing or an alternative treatment.

Occasionally, UTIs may spread to your kidney causing symptoms of fever, back pain and vomiting. If you get any of these symptoms you should seek an urgent assessment from your GP, local walk-in centre or A&E department.

As is true of all medication, Nitrofurantoin can interact with other medicines. This is why it's important that you let us know which prescription, over-the-counter medicines and recreational drugs you are taking so that we can prescribe Nitrofurantoin safely.

Nitrofurantoin has been recognised as the first-choice antibiotic treatment for all UTIs by Public Health England. However, if for any reason Nitrofurantoin is not suitable for you, our clinicians may prescribe Trimethoprim as an alternative treatment.

Mild symptoms of UTIs may also clear up on their own within a few days. You should drink plenty of water and refrain from sexual intercourse during this time. Over-the-counter painkillers can also be taken to help relieve pain or discomfort.
