Zady 250 Tablet

Zady 250 Tablet is an azithromycin antibiotic tablet containing 250 mg of azithromycin in each tablet. It belongs to the macrolide class of antibiotics and is used to treat certain bacterial infections, not viral illnesses like colds or flu. Zady 250 Tablet may be prescribed for infections affecting the respiratory tract, skin, ears, throat, or some sexually transmitted infections, depending on the doctor’s diagnosis.

How it works: Azithromycin works by stopping bacteria from making the proteins they need to grow and multiply. In tablet form, Zady 250 Tablet is swallowed and absorbed into the body to help clear the bacterial infection over the prescribed course.

Zady 250 Tablet is the lower-strength tablet in this brand range, and it is often used when a doctor wants more flexible dosing or a smaller per-tablet amount than Zady 500 Tablet. It may suit patients who need a dose built up from 250 mg tablets or who have been specifically assessed for this strength rather than the higher-strength option.

• Sinus and ear infections
• Chest and lung infections
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Certain sexually transmitted infections

• Swallow Zady 250 Tablet whole with a glass of water unless your doctor gives different instructions.
• Take it at the same time each day if it is prescribed once daily.
• You may take it with or without food; taking it with food can help if it upsets your stomach.
• Finish the full prescribed course even if you start feeling better early.
• Do not take extra tablets to make up for a missed dose unless your prescriber tells you to.
• If you also take antacids containing aluminum or magnesium, separate them from this tablet by at least 2 hours.

Each Zady 250 Tablet provides 250 mg of azithromycin per tablet. The doctor decides how many tablets you need and how often to take them; depending on the infection, it may be taken once daily or as part of a split regimen, but you should not change the dose yourself. There is no single maximum dose for every infection, so the exact daily limit must come from the prescriber’s instructions for this 250 mg strength.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
