The coated tablets: light pink, oblong, biconvex shape. The cross-section view shows two layers: the inner layer is white or almost white.
Pharmacological action:
When creating in the focus of inflammation of high concentrations has a bactericidal effect.
Pharmacokinetics:
Stable in acid medium, lipophilic, rapidly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract. Once inside the dose of 500 mg Cmax in plasma is 0, 4 mg/l and is reached after 2, 5-2, 96 h. Bioavailability is 37%. Well into the respiratory tract, organs and tissues of the urogenital tract (in particular, in the prostate gland), in skin and soft tissue. The concentration in tissues and cells is 10-50 times higher than in plasma, and in the foci of infection is 24-34% higher than in healthy tissues (correlates with the degree of inflammatory edema). Transported by phagocytes to the focus of infection, where it is released in the process of phagocytosis. The apparent volume of distribution of 31, 1 l/kg. High antibacterial level is maintained in the middle of inflammation within 5-7 days. Metabolized in the liver by demethylation to form inactive metabolites. Withdrawal takes place in 2 stages T1/2 is 14-20 h (in the range of 8-24 h after taking the drug) and 41 h (in the range of 24-72 h).
Description of the pharmacological action:

Inactive against gram-positive bacteria resistant to erythromycin.
Indications:
Upper (pharyngitis, tonsillitis) and lower (bacterial and atypical pneumonia, bronchitis) respiratory tract, ENT organs (otitis media, sinusitis), skin and soft tissue (erysipelas, impetigo, secondary infected dermatoses), urogenital tract (uncomplicated urethritis and / or cervicitis), Lyme disease (treatment of erythema migrans), diseases of the stomach and duodenum, associated with Helicobacter pylori (as part of combination therapy).

From the digestive tract: diarrhea (5%), nausea, abdominal pain (3%) &le1% — dyspepsia, flatulence, vomiting, melon, cholestatic jaundice, increased liver transaminases in children — constipation, anorexia, gastritis.
On the part of the genitourinary system: &le1 % - vaginal candidiasis, nephritis.
Allergic reactions: rash, photosensitivity, angioedema.
Other: fatigue in children — conjunctivitis, itching, urticaria.
Drug interaction:
Antacids (aluminum and magnesium-containing), ethanol and food slow down and reduce absorption.
Increases the concentration of digoxin, slows down the excretion and increases the concentration in plasma and toxicity of cyclosporine, indirect anticoagulants, methylprednisolone, felodipine, carbamazepine, terfenadine, hexobarbital, alkaloids, valproic acid, disopyramide, bromocriptine, phenytoin, oral hypoglycemic agents, theophylline and other xanthine derivatives.
Lincosamide weaken the effectiveness of tetracycline and chloramphenicol enhance. Pharmacologically incompatible with heparin.

Adults with infection of the upper and lower respiratory tract-500 mg / day for 3 days (course dose-1500 mg) in infections of the skin and soft tissues-1000 mg / day on the first day, then (2-5 days — - 500 mg/day (course dose-3000 mg) in acute infections of the genitourinary organs (uncomplicated urethritis or cervicitis) - 1000 mg once in Lyme disease (treatment of the initial stage-erythema-1000 mg) / day on the first day, then (2-5 days) - 500 mg / day (course dose-3000 mg) for gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer associated with Helicobacter pylori, — 1000 mg / day for 3 days in the complex therapy.
