Azithromycin (Azi) is a macrolide antibiotic related to erythromycin. It is used primarily to treat various bacterial infections caused by respiratory pathogens, such as Aerobic gram-positive microorganisms and Aerobic gram-negative microorganisms. Azi prevents bacterial cells from manufacturing specific proteins necessary for their survival. Azi is rapidly absorbed and is widely distributed to tissues and becomes concentrated in cells. Peak plasma concentrations are achieved within 2 to 3 hours. Azi Amine is a close intermediate of Azi and enjoys competitive pricing trends amongst various derivatives of Azi related products. Comprehensive testing and improvement on quality, purity, stereochemistry, stability in compliance with the international standards of Azithromycin API have been conducted at JCM for the past year to develop sales network with both domestic and international buyers. Previously JCM has been receiving orders to manufacture one of the major intermediates of Azithromycin, Azithromycin amine (Azi Amine) at a competitive international price. And the increasing demand for Azithromycin API necessitates the application for certificate of import.
