Azithromycin (250mg)

Overview Azipen 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 schedule for consistent, evenly spaced doses. Complete the entire course of treatment, even if symptoms improve; premature cessation may result in recurrence or exacerbation of the infection. Typical, often transient, side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant medical attention. Prior use of azithromycin resulting in cholestatic jaundice or liver impairment contraindicates use. Disclose any prior allergies or heart conditions to your physician before commencing treatment. Pregnant or lactating individuals should seek medical advice before taking this medication.

Azipen 250mg Tablets can cause diarrhea as a side effect. This is because, while the antibiotic targets harmful bacteria, it can also affect beneficial gut bacteria. Consult your doctor if you experience severe diarrhea.
