Follow these instructions to use Lizokit Tablet correctly and safely: 

• Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet unless specifically advised by your doctor.
• If you are taking the oral liquid suspension, shake the bottle thoroughly before each dose and use a marked medical measuring device to ensure you take the exact prescribed volume.
• Take this medicine at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day to keep a constant level of the drug in your system.

Always follow your doctor's exact instructions and complete the entire prescribed course of treatment, even if you start to feel better after a few days.

• Limit Tyramine-Rich Foods: Avoid consuming large quantities of foods high in tyramine, such as aged cheeses, air-dried meats, red wine, tap beers, soy sauce, and sauerkraut, as they can interact with this medicine and cause a dangerous rise in blood pressure.
• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support your body's recovery process and protect your kidneys while clearing the infection.
• Support Gut Health: Consider taking a probiotic or eating yoghurt with active cultures a few hours after your antibiotic dose to help restore the balance of healthy bacteria in your gut.
• Prioritise Rest: Allow your body ample rest so your immune system can focus its energy on fighting off the infection.

• Check the Expiry Date: Always verify the expiry date before starting treatment.
• Inspect the Liquid Suspension: If using the oral suspension, shake the bottle well and ensure the liquid appears uniform before use.
• Monitor Blood Pressure: Check your blood pressure regularly during treatment, particularly if you have a history of high blood pressure.
• Watch for Unusual Bleeding: Inform your doctor if you notice symptoms such as easy bruising, bleeding gums, or unusual bleeding.
• Do Not Share Your Medicine: Never give Lizokit Tablet to another person, even if they have similar symptoms.
