About AZITHRAL 500MG TABLET 5'S

  • Azithral 500mg Tablet 5's is a prescription antibiotic marketed in India by Alembic Pharmaceuticals Limited. Each tablet contains azithromycin 500 mg, a macrolide antibiotic.
  • Azithromycin is used for bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, ear, nose and throat, and skin and soft tissue. It is also a recognised treatment for typhoid fever and for certain sexually transmitted infections caused by Chlamydia.
  • Azithral works only against bacteria and has no effect on viral illnesses such as the common cold or flu.

Uses of AZITHRAL 500MG TABLET 5'S

  • Respiratory tract infections, including bronchitis and pneumonia
  • Ear, nose and throat infections, including sinusitis and tonsillitis
  • Skin and soft tissue infections
  • Typhoid fever
  • Urogenital infections caused by Chlamydia

How AZITHRAL 500MG TABLET 5'S Works

  • Azithromycin belongs to the macrolide class of antibiotics. It binds to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, the cell structure bacteria use to build proteins, and blocks the transfer of amino acids needed to build new proteins.
  • Since bacteria need these proteins for growth, replication and survival, this action stops susceptible bacteria from multiplying, allowing the body's own immune defences to clear the remaining bacteria. Azithromycin has a long half-life, which is why it can be given once daily for a short course.

Side Effects of AZITHRAL 500MG TABLET 5'SArrow

Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea and headache are the most commonly reported effects. A severe allergic reaction, facial or throat swelling, or a noticeably irregular heartbeat need immediate medical attention. Persistent or bloody diarrhoea after starting this medicine should also be reported promptly, since it can be a sign of a more serious bowel reaction to the antibiotic.

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhoea
  • Headache
  • Allergic reaction

How to use AZITHRAL 500MG TABLET 5'SArrow
