Quick facts
Zithromax treats respiratory infections, some skin infections, ear infections, and certain sexually transmitted infections. Doctors like azithromycin because of its convenient dosing and broad activity against several bacteria. Common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, stomach pain, and sometimes headaches. Rare but serious issues include severe allergic reactions and heart rhythm changes in people with specific risk factors.
Practical dosing & tips
Typical adult dosing varies: often a single 500 mg dose on day one followed by 250 mg once daily for four more days, or 500 mg once daily for three days depending on the infection. Always follow the exact instructions from your prescriber; dosing can change with the illness and your health history. Take Zithromax with or without food, but if it upsets your stomach, try taking it with a light meal. Finish the prescribed course unless your doctor tells you otherwise — stopping early can let the infection come back.
If you get severe diarrhea, dark urine, yellowing skin or eyes, difficulty breathing, swelling, or a fast irregular heartbeat, seek medical help right away. Also mention any existing liver or heart conditions and all medicines you take, including supplements, because they can affect safety.
Will Zithromax cure a cold or the flu? No — those are viral and won’t respond to antibiotics. Does it always need a prescription? In most places yes — a prescriber should confirm the infection and check for drug interactions.
