| Summary: | The article contains the analysis of the role of azithromycin (sumamed) in treatment of respiratory diseases in children. It is noted that azithromycin is an efficient antibacterial drug for treatment of extramural and uncomplicated pneumonia and is the drug of choice for atypical mycoplasmal and chlamidia trachomatis pneumonia, as well as for relapses of chronic bronchopulmonary diseases in children. High sensitivity to azithromycin of main pneumotropic and atypical agents, convenience of application, presence of children's pharmaceutical forms, reduction of administration to 1 time per day in case of short treatment schedules, high efficiency and absence of serious adverse events make it possible to recommend this antibiotic as an available means for treatment of respiratory diseases in infants and senior children not only as in patients but as out patients as well.Key words: children, azithromycin, treatment, respiratory diseases. |
