Composition Details
Clarithromycin 500mg
Description & Effects
Saniclar-500 contains Clarithromycin 500 mg, a macrolide antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, including those affecting the respiratory tract (like bronchitis, pneumonia), ear, sinuses, skin, and soft tissues. It is also used in combination with other medications to eliminate Helicobacter pylori infection associated with peptic ulcer disease.Clarithromycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. It binds to the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, thereby blocking the production of essential proteins needed for bacterial growth and replication. This bacteriostatic action (stopping bacteria from multiplying) helps the immune system eliminate the infection.
Saniclar-500 is typically taken once or twice daily as prescribed by a physician. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it with food may help reduce the chance of stomach upset. The course should be completed in full even if symptoms improve early, to prevent antibiotic resistance or relapse of infection.
Common side effects may include nausea, taste disturbances, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and headache. Rare but serious side effects include liver enzyme abnormalities or allergic reactions. Always consult your doctor before using Saniclar-500, especially if you have liver, kidney, or heart conditions, or are on other medications.
