Azrolid 250mg Tablet

Description

Product Description

Azrolid 250mg Tablet is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. Doctors commonly prescribe it for infections of the throat, tonsils, sinuses, ears, lungs, skin, and respiratory tract. It may also be used in certain sexually transmitted bacterial infections when recommended by a healthcare professional.

The active ingredient, Azithromycin, works by preventing bacteria from producing proteins that are necessary for their growth and survival. As a result, the infection stops spreading and the body’s immune system can eliminate the bacteria more effectively.

It is important to complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms improve earlier. Stopping treatment before completion may lead to recurrence of infection and increase the risk of antibiotic resistance.

• Respiratory tract infections
• Tonsillitis and pharyngitis
• Sinus infections (Sinusitis)
• Ear infections (Otitis Media)
• Bronchitis
• Pneumonia
• Skin and soft tissue infections
• Certain sexually transmitted bacterial infections
