Overview Zthro L 500mg 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. Administer orally, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals, consistently as directed by your physician. Complete the prescribed course; premature cessation can result in infection recurrence or exacerbation. Typical, usually transient, side effects encompass nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, headache, and diarrhea. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant medical consultation. Prior azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice or hepatic impairment contraindicates use. Disclose any prior allergies or cardiac conditions before commencing treatment.
