Drugs you should not use with nitrofurantoin antacids such as gaviscon that contain magnesium trisilicate: these drugs can make nitrofurantoin less effective. Probenecid and sulfinpyrazone: taking these drugs while you're taking nitrofurantoin may cause harmful levels of nitrofurantoin to build up in your blood. please try to take only one antibiotic at a time as long as it's not severe.

1. Martifur Mr. 100 (nitrofurantoin) is a good antibiotic and no need to use levofloxacin. 2. Drink plenty of fluids and re evaluates blood sugars and glycemic control. 3. If he is on sglt2 inhibitor drugs (canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin) for diabetes, it can cause recurrent uti. 4. If he has recurrent uti, get urine culture and sensitivity for definitive treatment.
