Description
Azithromycin Tablets
Healthy Inc is a specialized global supplier and exporter of advanced azalide antibiotics. We provide high-purity Azithromycin Tablets (Dihydrate), sourced from WHO–GMP certified solid dosage facilities. This “Tissue-Targeted” broad-spectrum antibiotic is a top export to infectious disease clinics, sexual health centers, and government procurement agencies in Africa, LATAM, and Southeast Asia, serving as the first-line therapy for respiratory tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases due to its convenient “Once-Daily” dosing.
Product Overview
This formulation contains Azithromycin Dihydrate, a semi-synthetic macrolide (subclass: Azalide) designed for superior tissue penetration and stability.
The “Pulse Therapy” Specialist:
- Mechanism: Azithromycin binds reversibly to the 50S ribosomal subunit of the bacterial 70S ribosome. It blocks the translocation step of protein synthesis, effectively halting bacterial growth (bacteriostatic). At high concentrations, it can be bactericidal.
- Tissue Accumulation (The Trojan Horse): Unlike older antibiotics that stay in the blood, Azithromycin is actively transported by white blood cells (phagocytes) directly to the site of infection. Tissue concentrations can be 50 times higher than plasma levels.
- Long Half-Life (68 Hours): Because it stays in the tissues so long, a short **3-day course** provides therapeutic coverage for up to 10 days (Post-Antibiotic Effect).
- Acid Stability: It is chemically stable in stomach acid, allowing it to be taken orally without degradation.
Product Composition & Strength
We supply this product as Film Coated Tablets. The coating is essential to mask the extremely bitter taste and facilitate swallowing.

- Polymorph Control: Azithromycin exists in several crystal forms. We strictly use the Dihydrate form, which is the thermodynamically stable and clinically proven polymorph, avoiding the solubility issues associated with the Monohydrate form.
- Dissolution Profiling: Our tablets are engineered to release >85% of the drug within 30 minutes in acetate buffer, ensuring rapid onset of action matching the innovator profile (Zithromax).
Therapeutic Indications (Human Use)
Indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate infections:
- Upper Respiratory: Bacterial sinusitis, pharyngitis/tonsillitis (alternative to penicillin).
- Lower Respiratory: Acute bacterial exacerbation of COPD, Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP).
- Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Uncomplicated urethritis and cervicitis due to Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria gonorrhoeae (often single dose).
- Typhoid Fever: An effective alternative for Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) typhoid strains.
- Skin Infections: Uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections.
Dosage & Administration
Recommended Dosage (Strictly as per Physician):
- Route: Oral.
- Standard Adult Dose (Respiratory/Skin): 500 mg once daily for 3 days. (Total dose: 1.5 g).
- Alternative Regimen: 500 mg on Day 1, followed by 250 mg once daily on Days 2–5.
- STI (Chlamydia): Single 1000 mg (1 g) dose.
- Administration: Can be taken with or without food (unlike Erythromycin). However, taking with food reduces stomach upset.
Safety Warnings:
- QT Prolongation (Cardiac Risk): Can cause abnormal heart rhythm (Torsades de Pointes). Caution in patients with known QT prolongation or low potassium.
- Hepatotoxicity: Rare cases of liver injury. Discontinue if jaundice appears.
- Diarrhea: A common side effect due to pro-kinetic activity (stimulates gut motility), though less severe than Erythromycin.
