A member asked:
Is it okay that the doctor prescribed me macrobid and doxycycline for chlamydia and a urinary tract infection, even though doxycycline kills both?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Hyoscyamine and nitrofurantoin is in Macrobid and covers urinary infection along with Doxycycline. The 2 meds together give a broader coverage in case the organism growing is resistant to doxycycline, Once the organism growing is known, then medications can be adjusted.
