If your symptoms don't improve after three days of taking Bthro 500mg, or worsen at any point, contact your doctor immediately.
Bthro 500mg 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.
