What is Zmax

AzithromycinThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryAzithromycin is an antibiotic used to treat a wide range of infections, such as respiratory, enteric and genitourinary infections. It is related to erythromycin, but has a different chemical structure. Azithromycin was approved by the FDA in 1991. In March 2020, a small study conducted in France showed positive results when azithromycin was combined with an anti-malaria drug to treat COVID-19. However, more research is needed to confirm these results.

Effectiveness

How Zmax Affects PatientsMacrolides are a type of drug used to treat bacterial infections. They work by blocking the production of proteins that the bacteria need to survive. Azithromycin has additional benefits and is often used to help with chronic respiratory diseases.
How Zmax works in the bodyAzithromycin is an antibiotic that works by preventing bacteria from producing proteins. It binds to the ribosomes of the bacterial cells, blocking their ability to create proteins that are necessary for them to survive and reproduce. This stops the spread of bacterial infections. Azithromycin is more effective than other antibiotics because it is more stable in low pH levels, so it stays in the body longer and can reach higher concentrations in tissues.

When to interrupt dosage

The suggested amount of Zmax is predicated on the diagnosed affliction, including Streptococcus Agalactiae Infection, Chlamydia trachomatis and Genus Chlamydia. The dosage is subject to the technique of delivery depicted in the table underneath.

Zmax Toxicity & Overdose RiskThe lethal dose of azithromycin for rats is greater than 2000mg/kg. Side effects may include heart problems, hearing loss, and liver or kidney damage. People with reduced liver function should be careful when taking azithromycin. Pregnant women should only take azithromycin if it is absolutely necessary, as it is unknown if the drug is passed to babies through milk. Long-term studies have not been done to determine if the drug causes cancer, but so far it has not been found to be mutagenic or to affect fertility.

Zmax Reviews: What are patients saying about Zmax?

5Patient Review
1/5/2011
Zmax for Acute Bacterial Infection of the Sinuses
About an hour after taking this medication, I experienced diarrhea. This happened a few times throughout the night. Additionally, I had mild stomach cramps but nothing too severe. My mouth was also very dry; however, this could be due to the fact that I couldn't really breathe through my nose. The next day, I still experienced loose stool but no other symptoms.

Is there a zMAX?

"zMAX is a micro-lubricant that uses the fluids in your vehicle to get to internal parts where it soaks into metal to disperse harmful carbon build-up. Other products change the viscosity of the oil. zMAX doesn't need to do that. It works all on its own."
