Overview Riaz 250mg Tablet

Azithromycin 250mg tablets 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 and certain sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea. Administer orally, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals, following your doctor's prescribed schedule with consistent intervals. Complete the entire course, even with symptom improvement; premature cessation risks infection recurrence. Potential side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea—generally transient and resolving upon treatment completion. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to use, disclose any history of cholestatic jaundice, liver problems related to azithromycin, allergies, or heart conditions. Pregnant or lactating individuals should seek medical counsel before commencing treatment.
