Description

Description

Macrobac (500Mg) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic tablet containing Azithromycin, manufactured by Asian Continental. It works by stopping bacterial protein synthesis, preventing bacteria from growing and multiplying, which allows the body’s immune system to clear the infection more effectively. Each pack contains 6 tablets, offering a convenient once-daily dosing schedule that supports better treatment compliance and faster recovery from a range of bacterial infections.

Ingredients

Each tablet contains 500mg of Azithromycin (as dihydrate), along with standard pharmaceutical excipients that support tablet formulation and stability.

Dosage Form

Macrobac is available as an oral tablet, taken by mouth with water, with or without food.

Uses

Macrobac is used to treat bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, including bronchitis, pneumonia, sinusitis, and pharyngitis/tonsillitis. It is also prescribed for skin, ear, and eye infections, as well as certain sexually transmitted infections such as those caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, as directed by a physician.

How to Use

Take one tablet (500mg) daily, or exactly as prescribed by your doctor, typically for a short course such as three to five days depending on the condition being treated. Swallow the tablet whole with water, with or without food. It’s important to complete the full prescribed course, even if symptoms improve early, to fully clear the infection and reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include mild stomach upset, nausea, or diarrhea. Less commonly, some individuals may experience dizziness or allergic reactions. Serious but rare effects can include liver dysfunction or severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Contact your doctor if side effects persist or worsen.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before taking Macrobac, as its use during these periods should be evaluated based on individual health circumstances and the nature of the infection.

Storage Instructions

Store Macrobac in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children, and do not use beyond the expiry date printed on the packaging.
