How to store nitroquinol capsules after purchasing them

Storage of unopened drugs

Unopened nitroquinol capsules should be stored in the original packaging and placed in a cool, dry place below 25°C. Avoid direct sunlight and high temperature environments, and do not store in humid places such as bathrooms and kitchens. Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.

Key points for storage after opening

Keep the cap tightly closed after opening the medicine bottle, and cover it immediately after each withdrawal. It is recommended to mark the opening date on the bottle, and it is usually best to use it within 6 months after opening. If the capsule is found to be sticky, discolored or has an abnormal odor, it indicates that the drug may have deteriorated and use should be stopped immediately.

Precautions when traveling

When you need to travel with medicines, you should carry them with you in the original packaging and avoid checking them in. Insulation bags can be used for storage during high temperature seasons, but do not touch the ice packs directly.

How to take nitrohydroxyquinoline capsules

Standard dosage method

Treatment of acute urinary tract infection in adults: 1 capsule (250mg), 3 times a day. It is recommended to take it with warm water 1 hour before meals.

Prevention of recurrence: 1-2 capsules daily, recommended to be taken at night. The entire course of treatment must be completed strictly as directed by the doctor, and the medication should not be stopped early even if the symptoms improve.

How to deal with missed doses

If you miss a dose, you should take it immediately when you remember it. However, if it is close to the time of the next dose, skip this time and continue taking it as planned.

Do not double the dose to make up for a missed dose. This will not enhance the efficacy and may increase the risk of side effects.

Usage for special groups

Children, pregnant women and lactating women should use it under the strict guidance of a doctor. Elderly patients need to assess their renal function before taking the drug, and patients with renal insufficiency may need to adjust the dose. Patients with abnormal liver function need to regularly monitor liver function indicators during medication.

Good daily care can help prevent recurrence of urinary tract infections. It is recommended to drink enough water every day and empty the bladder in time. Pay attention to personal hygiene and wear breathable cotton underwear.
