What is azithromycin powder used for?Azithromycin is an antibiotic (macrolide-type). This single-dose form of the medication is usedto treat certain infections, including genital infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. This medication will not work for viral infections (such as common cold, flu).


Superb Quality Compliance

Azithromycin API conforms rigorously to pharmaceutical standards, passing IP/USP identification tests, and maintaining impurity limits (1.0% individual, 2.0% total). The API features extremely low residue on ignition (0.2%) and heavy metals (0.001%) for top-tier safety. With a purity of 98.0%, its physical, chemical, and microbial parameters ensure reliable performance for antibiotic medicine production.


Ideal Physical and Chemical Profile

This API appears as a white to off-white, odorless, and bitter-tasting powder. It features a D90 particle size under 10 m and pH levels between 8.0 and 10.0 (1% solution). The compound, C38H72N2O12, melts at 123125C and is slightly soluble in water but freely dissolves in methanol and dichloromethane. Its excellent stability and precise physical form make it suitable for advanced pharmaceutical formulations.


Safe and Secure Packaging

To maintain quality during transport and storage, Azithromycin API is packed in robust HDPE drums with double polyethylene inner bags, each containing 25 kg of material. This packaging method ensures optimal protection against moisture or contamination, aligning with recommended storage at below 25C for a maximum shelf life of 4 years.

FAQs of Azithromycin API:


Q: How is Azithromycin API used in pharmaceutical manufacturing?

A: Azithromycin API is primarily employed as the main ingredient in manufacturing antibiotic formulations such as tablets, capsules, syrups, and suspensions.
