Containing azithromycin, Azicred 500mg tablets combat bacterial infections affecting the respiratory system, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and eyes in both adults and children. This medication is also effective against typhoid fever and certain sexually transmitted infections such as gonorrhea. Administered orally, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals, Azicred 500mg tablets require consistent, evenly spaced doses as directed by your physician.
