Zifi 200 tablet or any antibiotic should not be used when you are not sure if the infection is due to bacteria. The unnecessary use of antibiotics can make them ineffective for future treatment. Complete the course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor or it may lead to relapse or return of the infection. Before starting this tablet, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding. Also, inform him about your detailed medical history & the medicines and supplements you take.
