Overview Retrazith 250mg Tablet

Azithromycin 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 the prescribed dosage schedule for consistent, evenly spaced intervals. Complete the entire course of treatment, even with symptom improvement, to prevent relapse. Premature discontinuation may result in infection recurrence or exacerbation. Common, typically transient side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea; these usually resolve upon treatment completion. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to commencing treatment, disclose any history of cholestatic jaundice, hepatic impairment associated with azithromycin use, allergies, or cardiac conditions. Consult a physician before using this medication during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
