oral antibiotic for Resident #12 despite her not having any signs or symptoms of infection. The physician
verified the resident did not have an active diagnosis for an urinary tract infection. The physician stated he
felt the antibiotic was to be used prophylacticly to prevent the resident from getting an UTI and becoming
sepsis. The physician verified the use of prophylactic antibiotics did not follow the facility's protocols for
antibiotics.
Residents Affected - Few
Interview on 12/28/23 at 3:00 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) #67 verified there was no facility
policy regarding the unnecessary medication.
Review of medication information from Medscape at
https://reference.medscape.com/drug/macrobid-macrodantin-nitrofurantoin-342567 revealed Macrodantin is
an antibiotic used to treat UTI's. Further review of the information revealed you should avoid using
Macrodantin for long-term UTI suppression. Long-term use in the elderly may increase risk for pulmonary
toxicity. Additionally, bacterial superinfections may occur with prolonged treatment.
