Description
Megaklar 500mg Tablets – Clarithromycin Macrolide Antibiotic
Megaklar 500mg Tablets contain clarithromycin 500mg, a semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit. This higher-strength formulation is used where a more intensive antibiotic regimen is required.
Megaklar 500mg is indicated for moderate-to-severe bacterial infections in adults, including: community-acquired pneumonia, acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis, acute bacterial sinusitis, skin and soft-tissue infections, otitis media, and as part of Helicobacter pylori triple eradication therapy. It covers Gram-positive bacteria including Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus, as well as atypicals such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydophila pneumoniae.
The full prescribed course must be completed even if symptoms resolve early, to prevent relapse and reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance. Prescription-only — use under physician supervision only.
For lower-strength option, see Megaklar 250mg Tablets. For paediatric suspension, see Megaklar 60ml Suspension.
