Pharmacological action

Broad-spectrum antibacterial drug from the group of azrolide macrolides, has a bacteriostatic effect. By binding to the 50S subunit of ribosomes, it inhibits the peptide translocase at the translation stage, inhibits protein synthesis, slows the growth and reproduction of bacteria, and has a bactericidal effect in high concentrations. It acts on extra- and intracellularly located pathogens.

Microorganisms may be initially resistant to the action of the antibiotic or may become resistant to it.

Drug Interaction

Antacids do not affect the bioavailability of azithromycin, but reduce the maximum blood concentration by 30%, so the drug should be taken at least one hour before or two hours after taking these drugs and meals.

In parenteral use, azithromycin does not affect the concentration of cimetidine, efavirenz, fluconazole, indinavir, midazolam, triazolam, co-trimoxazole in plasma when co-administered, however, the possibility of such interactions in the administration of azithromycin for ingestion should not be excluded.

When co-administered with cyclosporine, it is recommended that blood cyclosporine be monitored.

When digoxin and azithromycin are taken together, it is necessary to control the concentration of digoxin in the blood, because many macrolides increase the absorption of digoxin in the intestine, thereby increasing its concentration in blood plasma.

Careful monitoring of prothrombin time is recommended when co-administered with warfarin.

Concomitant administration of terfenadine and macrolide-class antibiotics causes arrhythmia and QT prolongation. Based on this, the above complications with the co-administration of terfenadine and azithromycin cannot be excluded.

Since there is a possibility of inhibiting the CYP3A4 isoenzyme with azithromycin in parenteral form when co-administered with cyclosporine, terfenadine, ergot alkaloids, cisapride, pimozide, quinidine, astemizole and other drugs, metabolism of which is caused by metabolism reception inside.

When co-administered with azithromycin and zidovudine, azithromycin does not affect the pharmacokinetic parameters of zidovudine in blood plasma or the renal excretion of its and its glucuronid metabolite. However, the concentration of the active metabolite - phosphorylated zidovudine in peripheral vascular mononuclear cells is increasing. The clinical significance of this fact is not clear.

Toxicity of macrolides with ergotamine and dihydroergotamine may be manifested by their toxic effect.
