Claritromicina Altan

Clarithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections. It works by stopping bacterial growth, often prescribed for respiratory or skin infections.

Clarithromycin is commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections like bronchitis and pneumonia. It may also be used for skin infections or other conditions where bacterial growth needs to be controlled. Clarithromycin is often prescribed when penicillin-based antibiotics are not suitable.

Clarithromycin may cause common side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, or stomach pain. Some users might experience headaches or changes in taste. Severe side effects are rare but should be monitored.

Clarithromycin should be used with caution in individuals with liver or kidney problems. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and complete the full course of treatment. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

Clarithromycin can interact with other medications, including certain antibiotics, antifungals, and drugs metabolized by the liver. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
