azithromycin 500 mg australia is a prescription antibiotic commonly used in Australia to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin infections, ear infections, and certain sexually transmitted diseases. It belongs to the macrolide class, working by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which prevents bacteria from growing and multiplying. Its long half-life allows for convenient dosing, sometimes as a single dose for specific infections, though longer courses may be needed for others. Azithromycin is generally well tolerated, but common side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, and headache. Patients with liver problems or a history of heart rhythm disorders should use it with caution. As it is prescription-only, it must be obtained through a doctor, and completing the full course as directed is important to ensure effectiveness and reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.
