Used For:

Azithromycin is an antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory infections (such as pneumonia and bronchitis), skin infections, ear infections, and sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia. It works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which stops the growth of bacteria. Azithromycin is often prescribed for its effectiveness and relatively short course of treatment, typically lasting 3 to 5 days.

Side Effects:

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Some people may also experience headaches, dizziness, or a mild rash. Serious side effects are rare but can include severe allergic reactions, liver problems, or heart arrhythmias (QT prolongation), particularly in individuals with pre-existing heart conditions.

Precautions:

Azithromycin should be used with caution in individuals with liver or kidney disease, or a history of heart conditions such as arrhythmias. It may interact with other medications, particularly those affecting the heart, such as antiarrhythmic drugs or certain antidepressants. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. This medication should not be used to treat viral infections such as the flu or the common cold.
