Fosirol Powder

Fosirol Powder belongs to a class of drugs called phosphonic antibiotics containing the active ingredient Fosfomycin. It is used to treat bacterial infections, particularly uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) in women caused by susceptible bacteria. It is effective against a wide range of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. This drug is also used to prevent possible infections before prostate surgical procedures in adult men. Administering the medication before the surgery can help reduce the risk of post-operative infections.

If you have a history of experiencing diarrhea after taking antibiotics, you must inform your physician before initiating the treatment. Certain antibiotics, including this drug, can sometimes cause gastrointestinal side effects like diarrhea, and this information helps your doctor assess any potential risks or alternatives. Fosirol Powder is generally not recommended for use in children under 12 years old. The safety and efficacy of this drug in younger children have not been well-established, and therefore, it is usually avoided in this age group.
