Azithromycin - instructions for use, analogs, reviews and release forms (capsules and tablets 250 mg and 500 mg) drugs for the treatment of angina, pneumonia and other infections in adults, children and pregnancy

In this article, you can read the instructions for using the drug Azithromycin. Presented are reviews of visitors to the site - consumers of this medication, as well as opinions of doctors of specialists on the use of Azithromycin in their practice. A big request is to actively add their feedback on the drug: the medicine helped or did not help get rid of the disease, which were observed complications and side effects, possibly not declared by the manufacturer in the annotation. Analogues of Azithromycin in the presence of existing structural analogues. Use for the treatment of angina, pneumonia and other infections in adults, children, as well as during pregnancy and lactation.

 

Azithromycin - broad spectrum antibiotic.Is a representative of a subgroup of macrolide antibiotics - azalides, acts bacteriostatically. When creating a high inflammation in the focus of inflammation has a bactericidal effect.

 

Effects on extracorporeal and intracellular pathogens. Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms are sensitive to azithromycin; some anaerobic microorganisms: Bacteroides bivius, Clostridium perfringens, Peptostreptococcus spp; as well as Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Treponema pallidum, Borrelia burgdorferi. Azithromycin is not active against Gram-positive bacteria, resistant to erythromycin.

 

It is also active against Toxoplasma gondii.

 

Pharmacokinetics

 

Azithromycin is rapidly absorbed from the digestive tract, which is due to its resistance to acidic environment and lipophilicity. Azithromycin well penetrates the respiratory tract, organs and tissues of the urogenital tract (particularly the prostate gland), the skin and soft tissues. The ability of azithromycin to accumulate mainly in lysosomes is especially important for the elimination of intracellular pathogens. It is proved that phagocytes deliver azithromycin to the site of infection, where it is released during phagocytosis. The concentration of azithromycin in the foci of infection is significantly higher than in healthy tissues (an average of 24-34%) and correlates with the degree of inflammatory edema.Despite the high concentration in phagocytes, azithromycin does not significantly affect their function. Azithromycin is maintained in bactericidal concentrations for 5-7 days after the last dose, which allowed the development of short (3-day and 5-day) courses of treatment. In the liver demethylated, the metabolites formed are not active. 50% is excreted with bile in the unchanged form, 6% - by the kidneys.

special instructions

 

In case of missed dose, the missed dose should be taken as soon as possible, and the subsequent dose should be taken at intervals of 24 hours.

 

It is necessary to observe a break of 2 hours with the simultaneous use of antacids. After the withdrawal of the treatment, hypersensitivity reactions in some patients may persist, which requires specific therapy under the supervision of a physician.

 

Drug Interactions

 

Antacids (aluminum and magnesium containing), ethanol (alcohol) and food slow down and reduce absorption.When co-administration of Warfarin and azithromycin (in normal doses) changes in prothrombin time is found, however, given that the interaction of macrolides and warfarin may be increased anticoagulant effect, patients requires careful monitoring of the prothrombin time.

 

Digoxin: increased Digoxin concentration.

 

Ergotamine and dihydroergotamine: increased toxic effect (vasospasm, dysesthesia).

 

Triazolam: reduced clearance and increased pharmacological action of triazolam. Slows down the excretion and increases the plasma concentration and toxicity of cycloserine, indirect anticoagulants, methylprednisolone, felodipine, and drugs undergoing microsomal oxidation (carbamazepine, terfenadine, cyclosporine, hexobarbital, ergot alkaloids, valproic acid, disopyramide, bromocriptine, phenytoin, oral hypoglycemic agents, theophylline and other xanthine derivatives) due to the inhibition of microsomal oxidation in hepatocytes with azithromycin.

 

Lincosamines weaken the effectiveness, Tetracycline and chloramphenicol - strengthen.

Unlike Sumamed's expensive analog, I liked Azithromycin because of its cheapness, although it was necessary to take capsules more than Sumamed tablets - 2 times a day (total 2 capsules per day). I took it from otitis and in the treatment of this disease he helped me, but literally on the last capsules there was a terrible red rash on the face, neck, hands and even palms, such a small-the doctor said that it is urticaria for taking Azithromycin, so now I try to take other antibiotics for infections, although there are other problems in the form of diarrhea due to long-term administration, and Azithromycin was convenient because of short reception.

I took the drug for five days, two capsules a day, from a sore throat.
Naturally angina has not gone anywhere, but in addition the flu began.
Manufacturer Veritas or whatever it is.
I was once again convinced that not everything that is produced in the homeland is usable. It would be better if he took Sumamed.
And, if you recall the Russian hysteria with swine flu, when this flu was found in stray dogs, now it's no-gugu, how could it have evaporated in Russia.
And, surprisingly, tests for the presence of A-B-C influenza in the blood can not be done even in a large Russian city, even for money.

Accepted Azithromycin in 3 capsules in acute respiratory infections with a cold upper respiratory tract, a mild cold in the upper area.It helped perfectly, only a dull taste was noticed, no more contraindications. I caught a cold very much, but on the third day (the third capsule) it was already much better. 2-3 times treated with Azithromycin. Still ATSTS it was necessary to drink for expectoration of a sputum. But ACC does not help everyone.

Rimma, It all depends on your wallet. All people are divided into those who prefer only imported, and there are those who prefer only domestic (the motivation of such people: why pay more, because the drugs are the same). So everyone decides for himself. If there is a question - to buy dorogushchee means, but there is no money or its cheap analog and begin treatment, then I would choose the second option.

I prefer foreign medicines and advise my patients to foreign patients, simply because the pharmacopeia is there and I have more confidence, but I will write out a patient with insufficient funds for an adequate drug at the price and corresponding to its status.

The doctor prescribed azithromycin for mycoplasma. 250 mg once a day for 6 days. After treatment I passed tests - mycoplasma did not go anywhere))))) She went to doxycycline and drank 7 days. Has handed over analyzes - a mycoplasma is not present. Here to you and a good expensive antibiotic)))) Azithromycin costs 150 rbl., And a doxycycline 15. The cheap tetracycline doxycycline has helped or assisted. Expensive - does not mean better!
Administrators
admin
AnyaIn this case, both you and your attending physician are wrong. Assigning you tests to identify the causative agent of the disease, he had to assign an analysis and sensitivity to the antibiotic, instead of prescribing his favorite medicine at random. Then the analysis would reveal the cause and ways of dealing with this cause. And so you had to change the medicine itself, which is also not true. You could simply not be lucky and an unpleasant or dangerous complication appeared or the illness went into chronic form due to irrational antibiotic treatment.

If an infection of the respiratory tract is supposed to take the instructions of azithromycin for 3 days, the doctor also prescribed 6 days in the same dose.Will an overdose happen? Can it be better to follow the instructions? Improvements for 3 day no, I do not know if it's worth to continue the reception?
Administrators
admin
Zinaida, Overdosing does not happen. 3 days on Azithromycin in a standard dosage of 500 mg is usually enough to cure the mild and moderate severity of the infection. If on such treatment the dynamics of the disease is negative and its progression is observed, then usually an increase in the duration of treatment does not bring the desired effect and it is recommended to change the antibiotic to another one or combine it with other drugs.
Guests
Or at
Prompt, who knows, whether it is possible to break a tablet azithromycin? And then 1 gram is so huge ((
Administrators
admin
Or at, Break the tablets in the shells is not recommended (tablets of Azithromycin just belong to the shell). This can lead to a change in the dosage of the active ingredient (plus the loss of medication in the form of crumbled particles), as well as impaired absorption of the drug in the gastrointestinal tract. By the way, I do not know about 1 gram of Azithromycin tablets (I know 500 mg).

Also, if the tablet contains a dividing risk exactly at half the tablet, then you can divide it.

PenelopeThe doctor did not just prescribe an antibiotic to a pregnant woman. Apparently there are grounds for this or threatening your life and the health of your child's future state. Without a reason to prescribe an antibiotic pregnant - this is a crime, but if there is no other way out, then you have to do it. And it must be understood that this is an extreme measure in any treatment. Especially on a strict prescription of a doctor Azithromycin can be used in pregnant women.

Inna, Check with your attending physician for the replacement of the antibiotic with another, as this is an allergic reaction and it can be dangerous to continue taking it. Angina without antibiotics is not treated, so just stop drinking does not work.

Hello. I am pregnant, we are 6 weeks old. It turned out that I'm sick with chlamydia. How to be? What will do more harm to the child: antibiotics, or illness. Is it treated during pregnancy? And what?
Administrators
admin
SashaThe main thing is not to get nervous in your condition, it's more destructive than antibiotic treatment. Yes, antibiotics can have a negative, including on the fetus, but even more negative have sexually transmitted diseases, including chlamydia.There are antibiotics, which, according to strict indications, the doctor can prescribe in pregnancy - this is Azithromycin, and Vilprafen and some others. So contact an intelligent doctor and read the instructions carefully to avoid taking antibiotics clearly during pregnancy.

And after treatment, standard control of fetal development and ultrasound as planned, to track possible organ effects. The risk in any case remains, but now nothing can be done about it. All problems are rational to decide before pregnancy, but not on time.

Good evening. The doctor prescribed Azitrox for 1 capsule for 3 days. After taking the first capsule, I felt mildly ill, on the next day I took a second capsule and after 3 hours I started vomiting and dizziness. The next day, vomiting stopped and there was a lot of dizziness and weakness. I did not take the last capsule. Tell me, how many days will I have an allergic reaction? Or dizziness and weakness is not associated with taking an antibiotic? Previously, there had never been any health problems.
Administrators
admin
NikolaiMost likely, your reactions were associated with taking an antibiotic, as you yourself clearly associate side effects with taking the medication. Usually, transient effects should pass within the next week after taking the drug. If they last longer, either Azitrox is not to blame, or there has been a serious health failure due to taking the medication. In 95% of cases pobochka passes within a week on your own and there is nothing extra to do except for the withdrawal of the drug.

Can the temperature rise when taking azithromycin?
Administrators
admin
Elvira, This is possible in the first days of treatment. Since there is a massive death of bacterial cells and a lot of pyrogenic substances and residues of bacteria are released into the blood, which causes an increase in temperature. It does not last long.To mitigate the effect, you need to take more fluids, if there are no problems with the kidneys, to remove excess from the blood.

The doctor prescribed azithromycin to her husband - in 3 days it became much better, did not take anything else. When I fell ill myself, I also bought azithromycin as prescribed by my doctor. In a dose of 500 for 3 days. With pills for cough. After the first reception in 3 hours - a strong headache. I drank spazmalgon and it all went away. On the second day, a significant improvement.

On her legs she suffered mild colds, but she had a "good" sinusitis. The temperature is under 40 and does not get off. I did not want to make a puncture. Saw amoxicillin, paracetamol, washed the nose - the effect of zero. While the doctor did not change the antibiotic for azithromycin.

Katyushka1996, I think 5 days will be enough. Although, to tell you the truth, I'm starting to treat with weaker antibiotics from the penicillin group, they are doing an excellent job of sore throats and leaving the field for therapy with stronger antibiotics in case of unforeseen complications. But this is already a medical tactic, everyone has his own.

fiffinka, It is more likely that there will be no more pills, since the active substance of the drugs is really the same. Sometimes there are single reactions per million (not with the Sumamed-Azithromycin ligament, but in general), when a person may not have auxiliary substances that can differ in different preparations containing even one active substance, but this happens rarely, I would say this is the rarest happening.

First for angry patients with negative experience: How so, I recommend, I do not recommend. No one except a doctor can recommend or recommend an antibiotic. Your negative experience is interesting, but you better keep your recommendations to yourself, they do not carry any information content and are extremely harmful to doubting people who, after such harsh statements, may decide not to use a medicine that actually could help them!

Now about your experience. During my life I took many different antibiotics. Azithromycin was taken six months ago. Under the scheme 1000 on the first day and 500 in the next 4 days. Symptoms of the disease disappeared on the 3rd day of admission. It was the first strong antibiotic in my life whose reception I did not even notice. No dizziness, no GI disorders, nothing. I have a very weak liver, but there was no reaction.The thing is that this antibiotic is very slowly excreted from the body and therefore does not cause a one-stage attack on the liver as other antibiotics do. Actually, in slow excretion, there is the beauty of this antibiotic, and this allows us to manage small courses (3-5 days), which you can not say, for example, about everyone's favorite amoxicillin. Unfortunately, the resistance of the infection can happen to any antibiotic, so do not consider azithromycin ineffective ("bad") just because it did not help you and mislead doubting people.

The drug is very good! Take it must be specifically from his illness, like or not. I personally take all the antibiotics by experience. I do not trust doctors, because they made me a vegetable and gave me a group and put me to bed for seven years. Crawled to the bathroom in the room, that's how I moved and waited for death. But one day a miracle happened that punctured a triokson - got up and went and where my sacral hernia went, which I was forced to operate on every year. Now I'm running, jumping, crouching, etc. He asked doctors what I had - they make a helpless gesture.So, that to trust doctors, but itself is not bad, the best doctor is you. A domestic medicine can be said all good, even some better imported, just have to take them right. And most importantly, to correctly diagnosed. We do not know how to do this, so we have to go to doctors and find a diagnosis!

The doctor prescribed antibiotic jasmed 500 once a day. I did not find these tablets, ziomycin 250 was offered at the pharmacy, which included azithromycin. I drank twice a day for 1 tablet three days. I did not think that I had to take 2 tablets in one go. Five days later, diarrhea began, which has been going on for four days. Can it be due to improper intake of the drug (the instructions say - 1 time per day)?

faia, Diarrhea from taking antibiotics can be. About the wrong reception, but you had to take 2 tablets together once a day, but it's more about your recovery from the underlying disease, for which you took Ziomycin (this drug is a complete analog of the antibiotic Jasmed, the active substance they have azithromycin).If you have already recovered, you can try to restore the intestinal microflora broken by the use of a probiotic (Bifidumbacterin, Linex, Bioflora and others) disturbed by a strong antibiotic or contact your doctor if the symptoms of the underlying disease still persist.

Good afternoon! Tell me, please, what happens if I take Azithromycin immediately after eating? In the recommendations of the application 1 hour before a meal or 2 after a meal!

Here I read the reviews, and I think: the people are either stupid or illiterate. The instructions say, take one (one !!!) capsule a day for three days. And they take 2-3 for 5 days. Here the head will not only be spinning, it will disappear nafig. Read the mate part, gentlemen!

Feedback from the site visitor Tatiana Chupr moved to the required section:
I never thought that antibiotics help so quickly. She caught a cold at the weekend, the cold passed, and the cold remained. He tortured me completely. I went to the doctor. He said it was a genyantritis, prescribed procedures and prescribed Azitral. I asked, be sure to take antibiotics, because they harm the stomach. The doctor responded to Azitral with few side effects. I took capsules 1 time a day after lunch. Genyantritis passed. The stomach is working normally. In general, I advise, helped quickly, there were no side effects.

Hello. I had a sore throat, the doctor prescribed to take amoxicillin, but I drank it no good. In the pharmacy I was advised to Azithromycin 500 mg, the pharmacist said immediately take 3 tablets and everything goes for 1 time. I came home barely alive, badly sore throat, temperature is high and I just drank 3 tablets, and lo and behold, the temperature became normal, throat no longer hurt and the next day I again drank just 3 tablets 1 time, but I have much headache , came to see a doctor, she was horrified, said,that a large overdose can affect the organs of the abdominal cavity, liver, kidneys and stomach. Now I think if I'm okay, except that my head hurts, can it have swept me or is it very dangerous?

Svetlana Klevakina, Then look. The head can still be ill and from intoxication with bacteria that caused angina. It will be possible to pass a general and biochemical analysis to hepatic parameters, kidneys, to check quickly and inexpensively, how the impact dosage of an antibiotic affected your body, and then to monitor possible negative symptoms. 500 mg Azithromycin is a daily dose, that is, more than 1 tablet or capsule should not be taken, but manufacturers lay the maximum limits of their medicines multiples of the daily dose, so it may well not happen, but it's better not to experiment on yourself.
