Professional:CONTRAINDICATED: Some sulfonamides can form an insoluble precipitate with formaldehyde, which is generated from the hydrolysis of methenamine in acidic urine maintained by the presence of hippuric acid.
MANAGEMENT: Methenamine preparations should not be given to patients taking sulfonamides due to the risk of crystalluria. An alkalinizing agent should not be added because this may render methenamine less effective.
