Zithromax is a prescription drug that contains azithromycin, a macrolide antibiotic. It is prescribed for the treatment of respiratory infections, bacterial and parasitic infections, and skin and skin structure infections. It is effective against various types of bacteria and certain parasites, but it should not be used for viral infections such as the common cold. It is also important to note that Zithromax should not be taken by children under the age of 10 years. It should also be used only as a preventive measure to prevent infections during the early stages of pregnancy.
It is also available as a generic form of Zithromax, which is equivalent to Zithromax, and as a prescription-only medication. The active ingredient in Zithromax is azithromycin, which belongs to the tetracycline group of antibiotics. The drug is often prescribed in children under the age of 10 years. It is typically taken twice a day with a full glass of water.

It is also available in a generic form. However, the generic form of Zithromax is not approved by the FDA, and it is not approved by Health Canada.
