Azithromycin (500mg)

Overview Athroz 500mg Tablet

Azithromycin 500mg tablets are a broad-spectrum antibiotic indicated for bacterial infections affecting the respiratory system, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and eyes in both pediatric and adult patients. This medication is also effective against typhoid fever and certain sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea. Administer orally, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals, following your physician's prescribed dosage schedule. Maintain consistent, evenly spaced intervals; complete the entire course of treatment, regardless of symptom improvement. Premature cessation may result in infection recurrence or exacerbation. Commonly reported side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea—generally transient and resolving upon treatment completion. However, persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical consultation. Prior to initiating therapy, disclose any history of azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice, hepatic impairment, allergies, or cardiac conditions. Consult your doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
