Overview Zatura 500 Tablet

Azithromycin 500mg 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 fever and certain sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea. Administered orally, it's best taken an hour before or two hours after meals, consistently spaced as directed by your physician. Complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve; premature discontinuation can cause relapse. Typical, usually transient side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Prior to use, disclose any history of azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice, liver problems, allergies, or heart conditions.
