Overview Azigard 250mg Tablet

Azithromycin 250mg 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, following your doctor's prescribed dosage schedule for consistent, evenly spaced intervals.

Typical, usually transient, side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to use, disclose any history of azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice, liver impairment, allergies, or heart conditions.
