Important Precautions
- Complete the Course: Do not stop taking the medicine early, even if you feel better. An incomplete course can lead to the infection returning and developing antibiotic resistance.

- Kidney/Liver Issues: Use with caution if you have pre-existing kidney or liver problems; dose adjustments may be needed.
- Food/Alcohol/Other Medications:

- Avoid consuming alcohol during treatment as it may increase adverse effects.
