Azithromycin and its Uses

Generic Azithromycin is used to treat certain infections caused by bacteria, such as bronchitis; pneumonia; sexually transmitted diseases (STD); and infections of the ears, lungs, skin, and throat. Generic Azithromycin is in a class of medications called macrolide antibiotics. Generic Azithromycin works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Antibiotics will not work for colds, flu, or other viral infections.

Generic Azithromycin is also used to fight opportunistic infections in people with HIV.

Working Mechanism of Azithromycin
Generic Azithromycin works by preventing bacteria from producing proteins that are essential to them. Without these proteins the bacteria cannot grow, replicate and increase in numbers. Generic Azithromycin therefore stops the spread of infection and remaining bacteria are killed by the body's immune system or eventually die.

Food and Drug Interactions with Azithromycin

• Azithromycin should not be taken by people taking ergotamine or related medicines, eg dihydroergotamine or methysergide (used to treat migraine).
• Azithromycin may increase the blood levels of the following medicines:
  • ciclosporin
  • digoxin
  • theophylline
• If you are taking digoxin or ciclosporin it is recommended that your blood levels are monitored while you are taking azithromycin. Your doctor may adjust your dose if necessary.
• Antacids for indigestion and heartburn reduce the absorption of azithromycin from the gut if they are taken at the same time as azithromycin. Generic Azithromycin should therefore be taken at least one hour before or two hours after taking any antacid.
• Generic Azithromycin may enhance the anti-blood-clotting effects of warfarin and possibly other anticoagulant medicines. If you are taking an anticoagulant your doctor may therefore wish to perform extra monitoring of your blood clotting time (INR) while you are also taking azithromycin.
