Pharmacokinetics

This drug rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Ingestion reduces the absorption of azithromycin. Cmax in plasma is reached after 2-3 hours. This medicine rapidly distributed in tissues and biological fluids. 35% of the azithromycin is metabolized in the liver by demethylation. More than 59% is excreted in the bile in unchanged form, about 4.5% in the urine in unchanged form.

Why is Tromix prescribed?

Infectious-inflammatory diseases caused by microorganisms susceptible to azithromycin, including bronchitis, pneumonia, infections of skin and soft tissue, otitis media, sinusitis, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, gonorrheal and non gonorrheal urethritis and / or cervicitis, Lyme disease (borreliosis).

Dosage and administration

Dosage is setted individually according to nosology, disease severity and sensitivity of the pathogen. Dosage for adults for oral administration is 0.25-1 g 1 time/day; for children - 5-10 mg/kg 1 time/day. The duration of administration is 2-5 days.

  • ergot alkaloids: can not been exclude the risk of ergotism;

  • disopyramide: described a case of ventricular fibrillation;
  • lovastatin: there was describes some cases of rhabdomyolysis;
  • rifabutin increases risk of neutropenia and leukopenia;
  • cyclosporine: disturbed metabolism of cyclosporine which increases the risk of adverse and toxic reactions caused by cyclosporine
