What Experts Say

Azithromycin works by stopping bacteria from producing the proteins they need to grow and multiply. This slows the infection down and allows the body's immune system to clear it more effectively over a short period.

One of its key advantages is a long half life, meaning it stays active in the body for several days after the last dose. This allows shorter treatment courses compared to many other antibiotics, which helps people finish the full course as prescribed.

Like all antibiotics, it should only be used for confirmed or suspected bacterial infections, since it has no effect on viral illnesses like the common cold or flu. Finishing the complete prescribed course helps prevent antibiotic resistance from developing.
