Azithromycin 500mg tablets are a broad-spectrum antibiotic indicated for bacterial infections affecting the respiratory system, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and eyes in both pediatric and adult patients.

Administer orally, ideally an hour before or two hours after meals, consistently at prescribed intervals. Complete the entire course of treatment, even with symptom improvement; premature cessation may result in relapse or infection recurrence.

Prior to use, disclose any history of azithromycin-induced cholestatic jaundice, liver impairment, allergies, or cardiac conditions.
