₹52.00
Erythromycin Stearate IP 250 mg is an antibiotic medication used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections in the respiratory tract, skin, ear, throat, and more. It requires a doctor’s prescription.
Key Information
- Active Ingredient: Erythromycin as erythromycin stearate.
- Strength: 250 mg.
- Type of Medicine: Macrolide antibiotic.
- Function: It works by stopping the growth of bacteria by preventing the production of essential proteins they need to survive, thereby clearing the infection.
- Uses: It treats infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, skin conditions (acne, rosacea), dental abscesses, and certain sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Directions for Use
- Prescription Required: This is a prescription drug and should only be used as directed by a doctor.
- Dosage: The typical dose for adults can vary from 250 mg up to 1000 mg (1 gram) per dose, taken 2 to 4 times a day, depending on the severity of the infection. A doctor will determine the appropriate dose and duration.
- Administration: The tablets should be swallowed whole with a glass of water; do not chew, crush, or break them.
- With or Without Food: For better absorption, it is often recommended to take it on an empty stomach, at least one hour before or two hours after a meal.
- Complete the Course: It is crucial to finish the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if you feel better, to prevent the infection from returning and the bacteria from becoming resistant to antibiotics.
Common Side Effects
Most side effects are temporary and do not require medical attention as your body adjusts to the medicine.
- Nausea

Consult your doctor immediately if you experience severe symptoms like persistent or bloody diarrhea, signs of liver disease (yellowing skin/eyes, dark urine), hearing loss, or allergic reactions (rash, swelling of face/throat, difficulty breathing).
Important Precautions

- Medical History: Inform your doctor about any pre-existing liver problems, kidney disease, heart rhythm disorders, or muscle problems (myasthenia gravis).
- Interactions: Inform your doctor about all other medications you are taking, as erythromycin can interact with certain drugs and also grapefruit juice.
- Alcohol: It is generally considered unsafe to consume alcohol with erythromycin tablets as it might delay absorption or increase the risk of adverse effects.
