Most people tolerate it well, but some side effects can occur. These may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain, headache, or dizziness. Rarely, it can affect heart rhythm or the liver, so tell your doctor about any heart condition or past liver problems before use.

Precautions and when not to use it

As per DRAP guidance, use it only on a valid prescription and complete the full course to help prevent antibiotic resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Hyzith treat cold and flu?

No, it treats bacterial infections only. Colds and flu are caused by viruses, so an antibiotic will not help and should not be used for them.

Can I stop once I feel better?

No, finish the full course even if you feel better after a few days. Stopping early can let bacteria survive and increase the risk of resistance.

Should I take it with food or empty stomach?

It can be taken with or without food. Taking it with food may reduce stomach upset without lowering how well it works.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Hyzith Capsules 250mg?

It is best to avoid alcohol during treatment, as it can worsen nausea and slow recovery. There is no severe interaction, but caution is sensible.
