Zady 500 Tablet is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, ear, nose, throat, lungs, skin and eyes in adults and children. This tablet contains azithromycin as its active ingredient. Azithromycin inhibits the formation of the cell wall and kills various susceptible bacterial organisms.
