CLARITHROMYCIN 500MG(CLARIMAX)PACK

What Is CLARITHROMYCIN 500MG (CLARIMAX) Used For?

Clarithromycin is used to treat infections like:

Throat infections (like tonsillitis or pharyngitis)
Sinus infections
Bronchitis
Pneumonia (lung infection)
Skin and soft tissue infections
Ear infections
Stomach ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori

This antibiotic only works against bacteria. It won’t help with viruses like the common cold or flu.

CLARITHROMYCIN 500MG (CLARIMAX) Ingredient

The active ingredient in this medicine is clarithromycin, which is a type of macrolide antibiotic. Each tablet contains 500mg of clarithromycin.

How It Works

Clarithromycin works by stopping the bacteria from growing and multiplying. It does this by blocking the production of proteins that bacteria need to survive. Without these proteins, the bacteria die, and your body can recover from the infection more quickly.

CLARITHROMYCIN 500MG (CLARIMAX) Dosage

Adults and teenagers (12 years and older): Take one tablet twice a day, taken every 12 hours. The length of treatment usually lasts 7 to 14 days, depending on the infection.

How Fast Does It Work?

You may start to feel better after 2 to 3 days, but it’s very important to keep taking the medication for the full course prescribed by your doctor. Stopping too early can cause the infection to come back or become harder to treat.
