Information About Spiramycin

Spiramycin is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat toxoplasmosis in pregnancy, respiratory tract infections, and dental infections in Singapore. Available as a 500mg–1500mg oral tablet taken two to three times daily, it is HSA-registered and available on prescription only in Singapore. In pregnancy, spiramycin reduces vertical transmission of Toxoplasma gondii to the foetus by achieving high placental concentrations that limit parasite crossing without systemic fetal drug exposure — it is the preferred treatment for acute toxoplasma acquisition during the first trimester. A valid doctor's consultation is required before dispensing. Order Spiramycin online at DoctorOnCall Singapore with same-day delivery available.
