Azithromycin (500mg)

Overview Azidence 500mg Tablet

Azythromycin 500mg tablets combat bacterial infections affecting the respiratory system, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and eyes in both adults and children. This antibiotic 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, at evenly spaced intervals as directed by your physician. Complete the prescribed course; premature cessation may result in recurrence or exacerbation of the infection. Common, usually transient side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant medical consultation. Prior use of azithromycin causing cholestatic jaundice or liver impairment contraindicates its use. Disclose any prior allergies or cardiac conditions before commencing treatment. Pregnant or lactating individuals should seek medical advice before using this medication.
