This oral formulation comes in a pack size of 30 tablets per bottle, providing a convenient supply for patients. Azithromycin belongs to the macrolide class of antibiotics and works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby effectively treating infections caused by susceptible bacteria.

Healthcare professionals should advise patients to swallow the tablets whole with water and to follow the prescribed dosage regimen for the specified duration of treatment. Azithromycin exhibits a broad spectrum of activity, making it effective against a wide range of bacterial pathogens.

While generally well tolerated, potential adverse effects include gastrointestinal disturbances and allergic reactions. Contraindications include hypersensitivity to azithromycin or macrolide antibiotics, and caution should be exercised in patients with liver or renal impairment.

Azithromycin is classified as Pregnancy Category B, indicating that animal reproduction studies have not demonstrated a risk to the fetus, but there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Healthcare professionals should consider the potential benefits and risks before prescribing it during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
