Product Overview
Toxocare 3 Million IU Tablet is an antibiotic prescribed for managing toxoplasmosis in pregnant women. By controlling the infection, it helps reduce the risk of passing toxoplasma to the unborn child. Occasionally, it may also be used for other infections as determined by a doctor.
How It Is Used
This tablet is intended to be taken orally on an empty stomach. Completing the full course is essential, even if symptoms improve early, as stopping the medicine prematurely may allow the infection to return or worsen.
Possible Side Effects
Some patients may experience nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, or diarrhea. These effects are generally temporary and diminish as the treatment progresses. If side effects persist, consult your doctor promptly.
Precautions
Liver function tests may need to be monitored during treatment. It is important to inform your healthcare provider of any allergies or pre-existing conditions before starting this medication. While this medicine is considered safe in pregnancy, it cannot reverse damage if the baby has already been infected.
Uses and Benefits
Toxoplasmosis can cause complications such as miscarriage, stillbirth, or damage to the baby’s brain and eyes. Toxocare 3 Million IU Tablet helps prevent transmission from mother to child and can slow the progression of symptoms in already infected babies. Early detection and timely treatment improve outcomes.
Administration Instructions
Take the tablet exactly as prescribed. Swallow it whole without chewing, crushing, or breaking. It should always be taken on an empty stomach for optimal absorption.
Mechanism of Action
