Zithium 500 Tablet 5 contains azithromycin (500 mg), which acts on the body by the following mechanisms:

• Bacterial protein synthesis inhibition: Azithromycin works by binding to a part of bacteria called the 50S ribosomal subunit. This binding action inhibits protein synthesis, which is a crucial process that bacteria need to grow and multiply.
• Enhancement of immune system action: By blocking protein synthesis in bacteria, azithromycin inhibits their growth at the site of infection. This action aids the immune system's white blood cells in engulfing and destroying these bacteria more efficiently. This process is called phagocytosis.

Overall, azithromycin helps manage bacterial infections effectively by preventing bacterial growth and aiding immune system action against these bacteria.
