TETRACIN 250 CAP is a prescription antibiotic medicine containing Tetracycline 250 mg as the active ingredient, used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria.
Key Information
- Uses: It is used for various bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections (like pneumonia and bronchitis), urinary tract infections, skin infections (like acne), eye infections, and sexually transmitted diseases (such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, or syphilis).
- Administration: It should be taken on an empty stomach, at least one hour before or two hours after meals or snacks, with a full glass of water. Do not lie down for at least 30 minutes after taking it to avoid irritation of the esophagus (food pipe).
- Precautions:
- Avoid dairy products, antacids, and iron/calcium/zinc supplements for at least 2 hours before and after taking this medication, as they can interfere with its absorption and effectiveness.
- It can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight (photosensitivity), so avoid unnecessary sun exposure and use protective clothing and sunscreen outdoors.
- It is generally not recommended during pregnancy or in children under 8 years of age because it can cause permanent tooth discoloration and affect bone development.
- Always complete the full course of treatment as prescribed by your doctor, even if you feel better earlier, to prevent the infection from returning and bacteria from developing resistance.
- Common Side Effects: Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, mouth sores, and skin reactions to sunlight. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, contact your doctor.
