FAQ's on ASP 500mg Tablet

Is ASP a strong antibiotic?

ASP is an effective antibiotic which is used for the treatment of many bacterial infections. Compared to other antibiotics, ASP has a longer half life which means that it stays in the body for a long time because of which it is given once a day and for short span of time. Other antibiotics comparatively have a shorter half life and are usually given twice, thrice or four times a day.

Why is ASP given for 3 days?

The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and the age of the patient. ASP is not necessarily given for 3 days. In most of the bacterial infections, a single dose of 500 mg is given for 3 days. Alternatively, it can be given as 500 mg once on day 1 and then 250 mg once from day 2 to day 5. In some cases of infection such as genital ulcer disease, it is given as a single 1 gram dose. Therefore, it is important that you stick to the regime advised by your doctor.

Can the use of ASP cause diarrhea?

Yes, the use of ASP can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic which kills the harmful bacteria. However, it also affects the helpful bacteria in your stomach or intestine and causes diarrhea. If you are experiencing severe diarrhea, talk to your doctor about it.

Can ASP be taken at night?

ASP are usually prescribed once daily. You can take it at anytime of the day, but remember to take it at the same time each day. The medicine should be taken 1 hour before meals or 2 hours after eating food. You can take the tablet preparation with or without food. However, you must take ASP exactly as advised by your doctor and ask your doctor if you have any doubts.

Is ASP safe?

ASP is safe if used at prescribed doses for the prescribed duration as advised by your doctor.

What should I avoid while taking ASP?

Generally, it is recommended that patients taking ASP should avoid taking any antacid with this medicine as this can affect the overall effectiveness of ASP. It is also recommended to avoid exposure to sunlight or tanning bed as ASP increases the risk of sunburn.

Can you get a yeast infection from taking ASP?

Some people may get a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking ASP. Antibiotics such as ASP can kill the normal or ‘good bacteria’ of your intestine which are responsible to prevent thrush. You should inform your doctor if you get a sore or vaginal itching or discharge. Also inform your doctor if you get white mouth or tongue after taking ASP or soon after stopping it.

How long does it take ASP to work?

ASP starts working within a few hours of taking it. You may notice improvement in symptoms after a few days. Do not stop taking the medicine without completing the course mentioned by your doctor. Stopping the medicine without consulting you doctor may cause the infection to come back which may be more difficult to treat.

What if I dont get better?

You should inform your doctor if you do not notice any improvement in your symptoms after 3 days of taking ASP. Also, if your symptoms get worse, inform your doctor immediately.
