Delzosin tablets are an effective oral medication containing the active ingredient azithromycin at a concentration of 500 mg per tablet. Azithromycin belongs to the macrolide antibiotic group, a class known for its effectiveness against a wide range of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, as well as some other microorganisms. Azithromycin works by inhibiting protein synthesis in bacterial cells, which impedes their growth and reproduction, ultimately leading to their death and elimination of the infection. Azithromycin has a unique property: its ability to accumulate in infected tissues and be released slowly, allowing for shorter dosing regimens compared to some other antibiotics.
