Zithromax (azithromycin) is a macrolide antibiotic useful in treating a vast number of bacterial infections. It is one of the most versatile and widely-used antibiotics on the planet, safe for use in both adults and children.
All macrolide antibiotics work by interfering with the ability of certain types of bacteria to make the proteins needed to grow and thrive. With the bacteria unable to flourish the body is able to fight off the infection.
Zithromax Uses:
Zithromax is useful in treating a myriad of bacterial infections, ranging from mild to severe, in patients of any age:
Zithromax tablets come in 250 mg or 500 mg; as a general rule, but with exceptions of course, when 250 mg a day are prescribed treatment will last for 6 days, with 500 mg treatment generally lasts for 3 days. This manner of prescribing is so common that 250 mg tablets are sold in packs of 6 and 500 mg tablets in packs of 3.
Dosage strengths will be smaller in young children. A physician can determine the optimal dose; do not try to guess. Too much Zithromax, or any antibiotic, can lead to severe diarrhea and other complications.
Tablets may be taken with or without food; those patients who experience stomach upset when taking Zithromax may benefit from eating when taking a tablet. A full glass of water with each dose will help with digestion and absorption.

Zithromax should be taken with caution in patients who have:
