Azithromycinequivalents
azithromycin 40 MG/ML Oral Suspension
The same active ingredient is not automatically the same medicine. Strength, route and formulation all differ, and only a pharmacist or prescriber can tell you whether one of these is a substitute in your case. What we can tell you is what each costs.
The same drug costs far less in another form
Azithromycin as a powder, for suspension costs about 11.2× what the tablet, film coated costs per unit of active ingredient ($5.24 against $0.47 per gram).
Whether the form can be changed is a question for a prescriber — for a child, or anyone who cannot swallow a tablet, it often cannot.
Other strengths and forms of the same drug
Not equivalents — a different strength is a different prescription. Listed because the price per unit often differs sharply between them.
