Azithromycin

Azithromycin is an antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections, including respiratory infections, skin infections, and certain sexually transmitted diseases. It works by stopping bacteria from growing, which helps the body fight off the infection. Azithromycin is often taken as a pill or liquid, and it can be given as a single dose or over several days, depending on the condition being treated. It is generally well-tolerated, but like all medications, it can have side effects. Always consult a healthcare professional for proper use and to check for interactions with other medications.
