Shake the bottle well before each dose. Take this medication by mouth with a meal or snack, usually every 8 or 12 hours, or as directed by the doctor.
Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. Therefore, take this drug at evenly spaced intervals.
Continue to take this medication until the full prescribed amount is finished even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medication too early may allow bacteria to continue to grow, which may result in a relapse of the infection.
Inform the doctor if your condition persists or worsens.
