Description
AZOMYCIN 200 Oral Suspension is an antibiotic medicine manufactured by Cipla Ltd., containing Azithromycin 200 mg/5ml. It belongs to the macrolide group of antibiotics and is widely prescribed for children to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Doctors commonly recommend it for respiratory tract infections (bronchitis, pneumonia, sinusitis, tonsillitis, pharyngitis), ear infections, skin and soft tissue infections, and certain gastrointestinal infections caused by susceptible bacteria.
Azithromycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which helps stop the growth and multiplication of infection-causing bacteria. This action not only helps cure infections but also prevents their recurrence when taken for the full prescribed duration.
