Finish the whole course; this group is heavily associated with antibiotic resistance and should be used only when prescribed.

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Generally avoided in children and adolescents, in pregnancy, and in anyone with a history of tendon problems with these antibiotics.
