Acute and chronic pleuropneumonic reactions as well as rare fatalities following nitrofurantoin exposure have been reported. A case of fatal fulminant hemorrhagic pneumonitis following nitrofurantoin exposure is reported here. Recent experimental evidence suggests that a toxic mechanism may be responsible for the observed reaction.
