Clarinova-500 Tablet is taken orally.

Clarinova-500 Tablet contains clarithromycin (500 mg) that works on your body as follows:

• Binds to 50S ribosomal subunit: Clarithromycin attaches itself to a part of bacteria known as the 50S ribosomal subunit. This subunit is responsible for protein production within the bacteria.
• Inhibits protein synthesis: By binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, clarithromycin disrupts the process of protein synthesis within the bacteria. These proteins are crucial for bacterial growth and survival.
• Stops bacterial proliferation: With protein synthesis disrupted, bacteria cannot grow or multiply. This gives your body's immune system an upper hand in eliminating the infection.

• Store your Clarinova-500 Tablet at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.
• Keep it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Keep it out of reach of children and pets.
• Be sure to use the medicine before its expiration date.

• If you are suffering from respiratory tract infections like pneumonia and bronchitis, avoid exposing yourself to pollution and dust. Wear a mask when you step out in crowded or dusty places.
• In case of infections caused by Helicobacter pylori, which is associated with peptic ulcer disease, consider a bland diet that includes foods that don't irritate the stomach lining. Avoid spicy, fatty, or fried foods.
