Erygel

Main Ingredient: Erythromycin

Erygel is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat nearly most bacterial infections of the body. Erygel is also used to treat sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) such as Gonorrhea and Syphilis. Erygel is given especially to those who are otherwise allergic or sensitive to sulfa drugs or penicillin.

Like most other antibiotics, Erygel works best when there is a steady supply of drug in the system. To do that, it is vital not to miss any doses and it should be applied at prescribed intervals.

ERYGEL SIDE EFFECTS


Common side effects of Erygel may include upset stomach, diarrhea, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting. Rare side effects of Erygel may include hives, rash, temporary hearing loss, inflammation of the intestine or severe allergic reaction.
