In some cases, appoint a "Sumamed" and its analogs



Original drug "Sumamed" is the generic name azithromycin. Under this name various pharmaceutical companies produce analogues "Sumamed": "Aziwok", "Azarel", "Safocid", "Azitroks", "Setrole Forte", "Amazed", "Hemomitsin" and others. Azithromycin has special properties: high acid resistance, ability to penetrate through cell walls, broad spectrum antimicrobial activity. Thanks to them, this antibiotic is indispensable in the treatment of intracellular infections (ureaplasmosis, clamidiosis, mycoplasmosis).
"Sumamed" has activity against a significant number of pathogenic bacteria: pneumococcus, Staphylococcus, some Streptococcus species, causative agents of syphilis and gonorrhea.


"Sumamed" it also helps with tonsillitis, pharyngitis, otitis media, sinusitis and other infections caused by sensitive to the active ingredient by microorganisms. The daily amount of drug and duration of treatment should be determined by the doctor depending on the patient's condition and the General course of the disease. For treatment can be assigned to cheaper analogues "Sumamed".

The difference "Sumamed" and its analogs



Analogues or generics of the original drug are much cheaper because their production does not require laboratory and clinical research. The part of unique needs to fully replicate the composition of the original, but despite this due to different manufacturing techniques and characteristics of production to achieve identity is impossible. The original and the generics can vary the concentration of the active substance, the composition of the shell, it may differently affect the response of the organism. The analogs have a greater amount of impurities.
Found that the total amount of impurities in the analogues "Sumamed" 3.1-5.2 times more their number in the original.


The result of the comparison "Sumamed" and generics have established that a significant part analogues dissolves slower than the original, which reduces their bioavailability and, consequently, efficiency. When compared with the original 4-in-kind ("Setrole, "Aziwok", "Amazed", "Hemomitsin") established that the best therapeutic effect has "Hemomitsin", the least "Setrole". Since the efficiency of analogues of the original, in the end, the cost of treatment is more expensive than the original drug. When using the "Sumamed" recovery occurs in a short time, it does not require acceptance of additional medicines.
