Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Depo has to be replaced every three to five years and otherwise it won’t work and doesn’t provide. any contraceptive action. If you replaced depo before five years, then you have all chances for pregnancy. Nitrofurantoin doesn’t interact with depot preparations and doesn’t leads to failure.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
