Vomiting UTI Treatment tablets full tabs
My mother, around 50, has type 2 diabetes, hypertension and mild CAD (no stent/heart attack). She has painful, frequent urination and visible blood in urine. Culture: E. coli >100,000 CFU/mL, sensitive to nitrofurantoin and cotrimoxazole. USG suggests cystitis, no stones. Creatinine 0.75, Hb 10.2, WBC 12,400, HbA1c 7.3%. Medicines: UriBID 100 mg, Bactrim DS, Gluconorm G1 Forte PR, Rejunex CD3 NF (half tablet), Rosuvas-F 10 and Telma 20. Ecosprin-AV temporarily stopped by doctor. She has vomited on two consecutive days, including food and a white tablet-like object. If taking tablet around 8 am and afternoon 2 pm vomited 2 tablets came just like original if I pressed turned into powder form. She also has stomach pain and headache. Previously tolerated another nitrofurantoin brand. Was the morning medication likely absorbed? Whether body rejected medicines?

Since you vomited the UTI antibiotic twice, once as a whole tablet, that dose was likely not properly absorbed. With your diabetes, high blood pressure and heart history, repeated vomiting along with stomach pain and a headache needs proper review rather than guessing whether to repeat or skip a dose.
Next Steps
Please have your treating doctor, ideally the one managing your UTI and diabetes together, confirm today whether the missed dose needs repeating, and check your hydration and sugar levels given the vomiting.
Health Tips
Seek urgent care if you can't keep fluids down, feel drowsy, or your blood sugar swings very high or low. Please consult your physician today for this.
