1. What is Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex and what is it used for

Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex is a 5-nitrofuran derivative and an antibacterial agent. It exhibits local action in the intestinal lumen against certain species of bacteria.
Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex does not destroy non-pathogenic bacteria that normally occur in the gastrointestinal tract. It does not cause the development of bacterial strains resistant to its action.
After oral administration, the product is partially absorbed (10-20%) from the gastrointestinal tract and is extensively metabolized, with the main circulating compounds in the blood being metabolites.
Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex is used in acute and chronic bacterial diarrhea in adults and children over 7 years old.

2. Important information before taking Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex

When not to take Nifuroksazyd Polfarmex

  • If the patient is allergic to nifuroxazide, 5-nitrofuran derivatives, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). An allergic reaction may manifest as a rash, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or difficulty breathing, confusion, pallor, rapid breathing, weakness, and fainting (if such symptoms occur, a doctor should be consulted immediately).
