About Tazido Tablet 6's

Tazido Tablet 6's is used to treat bacterial infections of the skin and skin structures. It is also used to treat infections that are resistant to other antibiotics, such as vancomycin-resistant enterococcal infections and linezolid-resistant infections, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body.

Tazido Tablet 6's contains Tedizolid, which works by inhibiting the bacteria's ability to produce proteins necessary for their growth and multiplication, ultimately killing the bacteria. Thus, it helps treat the bacterial infection.

In some cases, you may experience common side effects, such as thrush (a fungal infection), headache, a metallic taste, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, constipation, and indigestion. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
