FAQ's on AZIDUS 500 MG TABLET

Is Azidus safe?

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

Can Azidus be taken at night?

Azidus 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 Azidus exactly as advised by your doctor and ask your doctor if you have any doubts.

Why is Azidus given for 3 days?

The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and the age of the patient. Azidus 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 Azidus cause diarrhea?

Yes, the use of Azidus 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.

Is Azidus a strong antibiotic?

Azidus is an effective antibiotic which is used for the treatment of many bacterial infections. Compared to other antibiotics, Azidus 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.

How long does it take Azidus to work?

Azidus 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 should I avoid while taking Azidus?

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

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 Azidus. Also, if your symptoms get worse, inform your doctor immediately.

Can you get a yeast infection from taking Azidus?

Some people may get a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking Azidus. Antibiotics such as Azidus 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 Azidus or soon after stopping it.
