If your Azbact 500mg Tablet symptoms don't improve after three days, or worsen at any time, contact your doctor immediately.
Azbact 500mg Tablets can cause diarrhea as a side effect. This is because, while the antibiotic targets harmful bacteria, it can also affect beneficial gut bacteria, leading to diarrhea. Consult your doctor if you experience severe diarrhea.
