Azisign-500 is a prescription macrolide antibiotic containing azithromycin 500 mg. Azithromycin works by stopping the growth of the bacteria that cause infection. This pack contains one strip of 5 tablets and is manufactured in India by Signature Pharmaceuticals. Azithromycin should be taken only when prescribed, and the full course should be completed as directed.
Azithromycin is used to treat infections caused by susceptible bacteria: infections of the respiratory tract (including bronchitis and pneumonia), the ear, nose, throat and sinuses, the skin and soft tissues, and certain urinary and genital infections. It does not work against viral infections such as the common cold or flu. Unnecessary use of antibiotics promotes resistance, so it should be used only when a doctor has prescribed it.
Take Azisign-500 exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Azithromycin is usually taken once daily; tablets may be taken with or without food, but a consistent routine helps. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not skip doses and do not stop the course early, even if you start to feel better — this is important both for curing the infection and for limiting antibiotic resistance.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, vomiting, headache and a changed sense of taste. Most settle without special treatment. Seek medical help promptly if you develop severe or persistent diarrhoea, an irregular heartbeat, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), a rash, or swelling of the face and throat. Stop the medicine and contact a doctor if any serious reaction occurs.
Tell your doctor about heart rhythm problems, liver or kidney disease, myasthenia gravis, or any allergy to macrolide antibiotics before taking azithromycin. It can interact with other medicines, including some antacids, anticoagulants, and drugs that affect heart rhythm, so report everything you take. Azithromycin may be used in pregnancy or breastfeeding only if a doctor decides it is necessary. Alcohol is best avoided during treatment.
Store below 30 °C in the original package, protected from light and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children. Do not use after the expiry date printed on the pack.
