Zithromax.
Zithromax (azithromycin) is a macrolide antibiotic specially intended for the treatment of infections cause by bacterial. Therefore, it is not going to treat a viral infection and is not supposed to be used for one. Zithromax should be taken as early as prescribed – and all the possible factors that may affect the success of your treatment must be reported. Your doctor will need to know if you have liver disease, kidney disease, heart rhythm disorder, a history of Long QT syndrome, or myasthenia gravis, as those conditions have been reported to affect the success of your treatment, and a dose adjustment may be required. Tell your doctor if you are taking any prescription or over-the-counter products that can interact with Zithromax – especially medications that suppress the immune system, phenytoin, digoxin, terfenadine, nelfinavir, ergotamine, anticoagulants, or cyclosporine. If you do have to take any other drugs mentioned – your doctor will provide recommendations on how to take Zithromax to avoid interactions and unpleasant health effects. If you get such side effects as dizziness, diarrhea, mild nausea, mild itching or skin rash, constipation, stomach pain, headache, insomnia, ringing in your ears, or have vomiting, continue taking Zithromax, as those symptoms will go away on their own.
