Summary

We present the clinical case of the patient with nitrofurantoin (FUR) lung toxicity. Diagnosis was made from detailed history of the patient and by studying CT images before the start of FUR treatment. An extensive interstitial changes were evident on HRCT scan at the presentation at our clinic. The definitive diagnosis was supported by negative microbiology and autoantibody screening and almost complete regression of changes after FUR treatment withdrawal. There was no need for corticosteroid treatment or immunosuppressive medication.
