How to use:
You should take Azee 100 mg Tablet DT exactly as your doctor says to.
You can give it to someone by swallowing it whole with water or dissolving it in a small amount of water (1–2 teaspoons).
Take it once a day, and try to do it at the same time every day.
You can take it with or without food, although it's best to do it after meals to avoid gastrointestinal problems.
Even if your symptoms get better quickly, you should finish the whole course of medication.
Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from kids in a cool, dry location.
How it works:
By attaching to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, it stops the synthesis of proteins in bacteria.
This stops bacteria from making the proteins they require to thrive and stay alive.
Because of this, the bacteria stop growing and eventually die, which helps to get rid of the infection.
It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, which means it can kill a lot of different kinds of bacteria.

Medicine interaction:
Azee (Azithromycin) can interact with a number of other drugs, so you should always tell your doctor about all of your current treatments.
Some of the most important interactions are:
Antacids that include aluminum or magnesium make it harder for the body to absorb Azee. Give it at least two hours before or after taking antacids.
Warfarin or other blood thinners: may make bleeding more likely.
Digoxin: may raise the levels of digoxin in the blood.
Cyclosporine: might make toxicity more likely.
Ergot derivatives: can cause significant reactions—don't mix them.
Other antibiotics may change how bacteria become resistant.
Don't take antibiotics on your own to avoid resistance or negative effects.
