What is Zithromax? Zithromax is a type of antibiotic called a macrolide-type antibiotic. Zithromax is specifically prescribed to be used at a dose of 25 or 50 mg twice daily, depending on the condition it is used for. Zithromax begins to work within minutes of being taken and continues to work even after you finish taking it. This medication belongs to a class of antibiotics called macrolide antibiotics. These antibiotics are used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including acne, trachoma, and more.Zithromax works by stopping the growth of bacteria that have been growing for many, many years. It does this by stopping the multiplication of the bacteria, but not all bacteria are. This prevents the medicine from reaching the appropriate concentrations to cause the infection.
At the same time as Zithromax is taking effect, it lowers blood levels of nitrous oxide in the body, which lowers blood pressure. This medicine also lowers the "pressure" on the stomach – a condition in which blood becomes trapped in the stomach where it is needed to ulcerate. This can cause pain, bleeding, and in some cases, even discomfort.� Zithromax is to be taken with a meal to help you take a dose of 25 to 50 mg per day so that you will be able to take it at the same time every day. SmithKline‐ActaPharmacy.com offers Zithromax dosage below. Levitra and Cialis are available for purchase in daily 2.5 mg and 5 mg dosage forms, respectively.
If you are taking any medications, speak with your pharmacist before starting treatment with Zithromax.
