Overview Deflox 500mg Tablet

Deflox 500mg tablets are an antibacterial medication combating bacterial infections. They're effective against infections in the urinary system, respiratory tract (including pneumonia), and skin and soft tissues. This antibiotic halts bacterial proliferation, thus resolving the infection. Dosage and treatment length should strictly follow your physician's instructions. Administer with or without food, consistently at the same time each day. Complete the entire prescribed course, even with symptom improvement, and avoid missed doses. Nausea and abdominal discomfort are possible, generally transient and self-limiting. However, persistent or bothersome side effects warrant medical consultation. Diarrhea can also occur, typically subsiding upon treatment completion; report persistent diarrhea or blood in your stool. Avoid this medication if you're allergic to any component. Seek immediate medical help for rare, serious allergic reactions (rash, facial/tongue/lip swelling, breathing difficulties). Disclose any pre-existing kidney conditions to your doctor.
