Azimer

Azimer is an oral macrolide antibiotic containing azithromycin, marketed by Merlion Lifescience. It exerts its antibacterial effect by binding to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, which inhibits RNA-dependent protein synthesis and prevents bacterial growth. Azimer is indicated for the treatment of various bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections (such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and sinusitis), skin and soft tissue infections, sexually transmitted diseases (including chlamydia and gonorrhea), and typhoid fever. As a generic formulation, it is typically provided in tablet form for convenient oral administration.
