Z-Pak worked for me a few weeks ago as a last resort to help cure an undiagnosed infection. I immediately felt better by day 2 of the z-pak. Two weeks later, the same symptoms have returned mostly extreme fatigue and low energy. I am considering taking another z-pak because I have no other options. What are your thoughts on taking a second z-pak assuming the first z-pak did not kill off all the bad bacteria?
Hi what was the dosage?
I think you have to take as long period, maybe 14 days duration I'm not a doctor but you can consult you doctor, I'm taking this medicine too, but today is my 5 day's using this, i also feel better in just one day taking it,
Should I continue taking it even though I'm having diarrhea or other side effects?
I ve inflammation that is around my kness feet shoulders fingers wrest after taking azithromycin. What should I do to or take
I got really bad rash an high heart beat an dizzy
This is a very good video. I've seen a lot of this medication on UA-cam but this one is the most thorough.
I'm on propanol should I take it I read it's dangerous to mix the 2 Just need to know is it safe or will I have a Hart attack ?
Please help!!!! My doctor prescribed me Azithromycin and Colchicine to treat Covid 19. The colchicine she said is to avoid blood clots. Is this a right combination? Thank you.
Zpak treats bacteria infections which Covid is NOT. Maybe they gave it to you in case there was bacterial infection

Great channel thanks doctor for sharing your knowledge.
Will anthramycin work even after diarrhea.
Sir gastrointestinal discomfort is either due to alteration in gut flora harmless bacteria killing or something else like acidity issues?
Excellent work 🎉
I think I have a sinus infection because there’s pain in my sinuses and I got yellow thick mucus coming out of my nose often and waking up with very dry sinuses. My doctor prescribed the azithromycin. Should the doctor prescribed me amoxicillin instead or will the azithromycin work?
I have a bacterial sinusitis and I'm allergic to azithromycin

✨Thank you!!! Good information!!!

Can it make you extremely hungry
I took a 1 g and I am experiencing ringing in my ears. Is this common and will subside? Thank you so much for your answer.
Hey Josh, do you have to take any more doses or are you done with the 1g? If you have to take more, I would recommend circling back with the doc.
Ringing in the ears after Azithromycin is not very common but can happen. It usually subsides. However, if you have more doses to take, I would recommend erring on the side of caution and checking with your doctor if he wants you to continue with the same medication. All the best.
@@HealthRX i stopped the dosing cycle. I’m hoping this will subside. Do you think it will go away. I had my hearing tested and there’s no hearing loss.
@@HealthRX thank you for your reply. Any opinions advice truly helps.
Can it cause Tinnitus???coz im suffring aftr three day dose.....plz reply
Even though it is very rare (0.3%), Tinnitus has been observed during post marketing studies of people taking Azithromycin. Will not be a bad idea to let your doctor know for directions as to the way forward.

what is the remedy for a long term diarrhea after taking azithromycin 2x a day for 5 days?
@Ayana G Hey can you plz share how did you find help
I had 3 azithromycin 1 time a day and now suffering from diarrhea from last 10 days.. plz reply
probiotics
@@shameembudha3320 I had 4 all At once this week and I been having diarrhea as well
@@shameembudha3320 Hi, did you find some help?
I am taking 500mg for three days… after taking 1st tablet.. I have high heart rate around 100bpm for more than 8 hours. Is it common for this tablet?
yes
I took this meds for the first time yesterday 500 for an unknown infection( I won’t know until my blood work comes back but I think it’s from a insect bite) but an hour after taking I felt pain in my heart and I could barely inhale. It happened around 5 other times.
Heart attack is a side effect
Amazing video thank you so much
You are so welcome! Not doing bad on your channel as well. U got some pretty catchy thumbnails.
Thanks. You made me feel at ease and I went ahead and filled my prescription right after watching this. I was a little worried because I don’t like medication and my strep test came back negative even though I was around somebody who has it and I am now sick. She gave this to me instead of penicillin because she said if I end up getting mono, penicillin can be bad for that. But then my mom said Z pack is not good for strep and it looks like Google said it could be weaker or something. Really didn’t want to take it if it had side effects and I don’t have strep but watching this video just made me feel safe and informed And I don’t usually take antibiotics it’s been like six years so I figure it can’t really hurt
I ask you a question Sir,it is also good for an open wound to prevent infection?
This medication may be prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
Am 33 weeks pregnant is zythromyclin ok for me
Superb information as I was experiencing some of the side affects mentioned. Including loose stool, mild diarrhea and mild stomach pain but I noticed that it was only in the morning when I wake up, immediately feeling these affects in my stomach and then having to rush to the bathroom. After awhile I felt much better. I didn't realize these side affects until researching this video. Thing is that I'm also on a vacation and this is NOT the time to have this problem despite sending an email to my doctor. My only thing is to be careful on what to eat and drink, then take it a day at a time until I can see my doctor in person again. Thanks for the excellent explanation and video!
same thing is happening with me . are you still having stomach problems
Made my eyes go red. 14 days.
Informative video
I wanna ask how to overcome nausea while taking azithromycin ???
Doctor or pharmacist 😂 please some one get this joke
Fantastic information thank you!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
Can I take MEDROL STERIOD with AZITHROMYCIN?
Is this like caliber?
Thanks Doctor nice medicine
Pneumonia ❤️❤️❤️
can you take Azithromycin with advil...
I had a wisdom tooth extracted, but don't want to take narcotic pain pill.
I don’t see any reason why not. Best practice is to have some food in the stomach when you take Advil. All the best.
@@HealthRX Thanks for the advice. I did eat before i took the Advil.
All the Best too you as well.
Can I take it with metoprolol
It caused me a shortage of breath what can I do?
Stop taking them. Sounds like your symptom is due to an allergic reaction to the medication. I know this is an old comment but for anyone who has shortness of breath after taking any medication should stop taking the medication immediately.
Can u crush it ?
Upper/lower infection -- Sinus and bronchial- didn't seem to have much of an impact, it's causing my illness to linger. I think I preferred Levofloxacin 500 mg worked GREAT last time I was sick.
Thanks for information s ...
You are very welcome.
Wow appreciate you
Thanks.
Thank you for this
Does it affect women in the first trimester?
Azithromycin is classified as FDA Pregnancy category B. This means that In the animal studies, *no evidence of harm to the fetus* due to azithromycin was found. There are, however, *no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women* . Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, azithromycin should be *used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.*
My pleasure!
@@kimberlyogaino650 You had an STD?
Thank you so much this Great we'll spoken Video really answered all my Questions I had about Azithromycin 👍🏾
Great! Thanks for watching. All the best.
I accidentally took two tablets in a day so is anything wrong will happen?
i took two for day one n been taking one for 4 days
I don’t think so. Just continue to take your one day. I also took 2 azithromycin the first day and I am taking 1 for the next 4 days.
Well usually the Z-Pak comes with six tablets you take two the first dose and then one every day until the medicine is done I just took my first two and I'm having bad stomach cramps I'm taking it for a sore throat can't wait for the four following days so I can get this over with 😡
(Update) I just finished my medicine (took it for a sore throat) and probably on the 4th day I started noticing my sore throat go away little by little. It took a week but it's gone and I feel great!!!!! but definitely eat it with something I made the mistake of taking my first dose without eating and cramps were so painful so the next few doses make sure you guys eat what I did was I had ate something waited about 20 minutes took the medicine and then finished eating my food and that really really helped with the cramps
Could anyone tell me if they had any serious side effects. I'm pregnant and was prescribed this
Not sure about taking it during pregnancy
Thank you for sharing this video it's help a lot
Glad it was helpful! By the way, the recipes on your channel look yum yum. I like the fried fish with the onions & stuff.
Are loss in smell and taste normal lasting for awhile and also numbness in fingers with pins and needles?
Loss of smell was observed in some people in post marketing studies.
@@HealthRX thanks for the response
I also have numbness and tingling after taking
@@samclub2129 did they go away
OMG I LOST MY SENSE OF TASTE AND SMELL AFTER TAKING AZIR. I’m panicking right now. When will I get my back sense of smell and taste? Does anyone know?
