Table of contents:

Monurol Sachet is an antibiotic medication used to treat bladder infections, specifically acute cystitis, or lower urinary tract infections. It contains fosfomycin tromethamine, which is a synthetic broad-spectrum bactericidal antibiotic. Monurol Sachet works by stopping the growth and multiplication of bacteria in the urinary tract.

Monurol Sachet is specifically designed to treat bacterial infections, and it is not effective against viral infections like the common cold or flu. Note that using antibiotics unnecessarily can lead to future infections being resistant to the medication. Additionally, Fosfomycin should only be used to treat infections of the bladder, as it is not effective for infections in other parts of the body, such as kidney infections.

Use and Dosage

Monurol Sachet is available as a powder that needs to be taken orally by mixing it with water as per the instructions provided by your doctor. Generally, one sachet or packet is taken as a single dose. To consume, empty the contents of one sachet in a half glass (4 ounces or 120 milliliters) of cold water and stir well until the powder is fully dissolved. Note that warm or hot water should not be used. Once the mixture is ready, you should drink the entire solution immediately.

It is typically prescribed as a one-time dose of 3 grams, dissolved in water and taken orally. Usually, the symptoms improve within 2-3 days of taking the medication. However, if you do not observe any improvement after three days or your condition worsens, you should contact your doctor at the earliest.

Take Monurol Sachet exactly as prescribed and complete the full course of treatment. Contact your doctor if you have any questions or concerns about using Monurol Sachet.
