Azee 500 contains Azithromycin 500 mg, an antibiotic that is prescribed to treat certain bacterial skin infections caused by susceptible bacteria. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria, allowing the body's immune system to fight the infection more effectively. However, Azee 500 is not effective against viral or fungal skin infections, so it should only be used when prescribed by a healthcare professional.
The type of skin infection and its severity determine whether Azee 500 is the right treatment option.
