Azithromycin (500mg)

Overview G-Thro 500mg Tablet

Azithromycin 500mg tablets are prescribed to 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. Consistent usage, at evenly spaced intervals as directed by your physician, is crucial. Complete the entire course, even with symptom improvement, to prevent relapse. Premature discontinuation may result in infection recurrence or exacerbation. Common side effects, including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea, are typically transient and resolve upon treatment completion. However, persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical consultation. Prior use of azithromycin causing cholestatic jaundice or liver impairment contraindicates its use. Disclose any prior allergies or heart conditions to your doctor before commencing treatment. Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
