Azithromycin (250mg)

Overview AN 250 Tablet

Azithromycin 250mg tablets combat bacterial infections affecting the respiratory system, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and eyes in both children and adults. This antibiotic is also effective against typhoid fever and certain sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea. Oral administration is recommended, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals. Consistent, evenly spaced doses, as directed by your physician, are crucial. Complete the prescribed course, even with symptom improvement; premature discontinuation may cause infection recurrence or exacerbation. Common, typically transient side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Prior use of azithromycin resulting in cholestatic jaundice or liver impairment contraindicates this medication. Individuals with a history of allergies or cardiac conditions should disclose this information to their doctor before commencing treatment. Pregnant or lactating women require medical consultation prior to use.

Using AN 250 tablets as directed by your doctor is safe.
If your symptoms haven't improved after three days of taking AN 250 Tablet, or if they worsen, contact your doctor immediately.
Diarrhea is a possible side effect of AN 250 Tablet. This antibiotic targets harmful bacteria, but can also disrupt beneficial gut bacteria, leading to diarrhea. Consult your doctor if you experience severe diarrhea.
Take one AN 250 Tablet daily, at the same time each day. It can be taken with or without food, ideally one hour before or two hours after meals. Always follow your doctor's instructions precisely; consult them if you have any questions.
