Overview Azital 250 Tablet

Azythromycin 250mg 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 a consistent dosing schedule as directed by your physician. Complete the prescribed course, even with symptom improvement, to prevent relapse. Premature discontinuation may result in infection recurrence or exacerbation. Commonly reported side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. These are typically transient and resolve upon treatment completion. Seek medical advice if side effects are severe or prolonged. Prior to commencing treatment, disclose any history of azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice, liver impairment, allergies, or cardiovascular disease. Pregnant or lactating individuals should consult their physician before use.
