Drug Warnings

  • Finish the entire bottle: Even if your symptoms clear up completely after a few days, finish the full course of treatment to prevent the bacteria from returning and developing resistance.

  • Never share your medicine: This antibiotic is prescribed specifically for your current infection. Sharing it with others or using it for a different infection in the future can be dangerous and ineffective.
