Full Prescribing Info
Dosage/Direction for Use
Posology: Acute uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections (acute cystitis) in females of 18 years of age and older: One sachet (3g of active substance), single dose regimen.
Clinical symptoms usually disappear 2-3 days after beginning of treatment: In acute infections of the lower urinary tract (cystitis, non-gonococcal urethritis) caused by microorganisms susceptible to MONUROL, a single dose (3 g of active substance in adults) is sufficient for recovery. The persistence of local symptoms, if any, after treatment, is not necessarily a sign of therapeutic failure, but usually the consequence of the past inflammation.
In more clinically problematic cases (elderly, bedridden patients, recurrent infections) or in infections due to microorganisms usually susceptible to the highest antibiotic doses (Pseudomonas. Enterobacter, Indolke - Proteus) two MONUROL doses can be administered at a 24 hr interval.
Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis for transrectal prostate biopsy: 1 sachet of Monurol 3 g approx. 3 hours before, and 24 hours after the procedure.
Method of administration: For oral use.
For the indication of acute uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections (acute cystitis), Monurol should be taken on an empty stomach (about 2-3 hours before or 2-3 hours after a meal), preferably before bedtime and after emptying the bladder.
The dose should be dissolved into a glass of water (50-75 ml) and taken immediately after its preparation.
