Stop start: You can stop but you run the risk of having symptoms while your not taking medication. Otherwise if you decide to stop medication get back on them as soon as you can and finish treatment.

Cystitis: If you no longer have any symptoms of UTI (burning, blood in urine, frequency) then it is ok to stop the macrobid. However, if you stop it too soon, the infection may recur. That is the choice that you will have to make.
