Overview Zicor 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 fever 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 for consistent dosing. Complete the entire course, even with symptom improvement; premature cessation may cause relapse. Common, typically transient side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant medical consultation. Prior history of cholestatic jaundice or azithromycin-induced liver impairment contraindicates use. Disclose any allergies or cardiac conditions to your physician before commencing treatment.
