Claroff 500 MG Tablet 4 contains Clarithromycin (500 MG), which acts on your body through:

• Binding to Bacteria: Clarithromycin attaches itself to the 50S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria in your body.
• Inhibiting Protein Synthesis: It prevents bacterial protein synthesis by disrupting peptide translocation. This interference halts bacteria's growth and multiplication, thereby effectively controlling the infection.

• Avoid exposing the medicine to moisture and light.
• Do not refrigerate or freeze the tablets.
• Always keep Claroff 500 MG Tablet 4 out of the reach of children.

• If you are managing a respiratory tract infection, try to avoid smoking or inhaling second-hand smoke as it may worsen your condition.
• For those dealing with skin and soft tissue infections, maintaining hygiene by regularly washing your hands and avoiding contact with infected areas can help to control the spread of infection.
