How It Works

Axerem Suspension’s active ingredient, azithromycin, works by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis. It binds to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, inhibiting the translation of mRNA. This action prevents bacteria from multiplying, allowing the body’s immune system to effectively eliminate the infection.

Dosage

The recommended Axerem Suspension dosage depends on the type and severity of infection. For adults, the usual dose is 500 mg once daily for 3 days or another duration as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Pediatric dosing is weight-based and determined by the prescribing physician. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Axerem Suspension may include diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, or dizziness. Most side effects are mild and resolve on their own. However, if you experience severe or persistent side effects, contact your healthcare provider promptly.

Warning

Patients with liver disease may require alternative treatments or close monitoring while using Axerem Suspension. Inform your doctor about any history of liver problems before starting treatment. In rare cases, Axerem Suspension may cause a severe allergic reaction. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs of an allergic reaction such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using Axerem Suspension. While azithromycin is generally considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, individual risk assessment is necessary.
