While common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea, are usually transient and resolve upon treatment completion, persistent or concerning symptoms necessitate medical consultation.

If your symptoms haven't improved after three days of taking Azith 250mg Tablet, or if they worsen, contact your doctor immediately.
Azithromycin 250mg tablets can cause diarrhea. This is a side effect because, while the antibiotic targets harmful bacteria, it can also disrupt beneficial gut bacteria, leading to diarrhea. Consult your doctor if you experience severe diarrhea.
Take one Azith 250mg tablet daily, at the same time each day. While it can be taken with or without food, ideally take it one hour before or two hours after meals. Always follow your doctor's instructions precisely and consult them with any questions.
