zithromax

Avatar n tn ve been fighting what appears to be a mild cold - sinus congestion and coughing up yellowish mucus, glands slightly swollen and tender under the arms and in the groin, but no fever or diarrhea - for about a week For my own peace of mind should I test for HIV? Would taking the Zithromax for bronchitis as I did address any other potential STDs? Thanks again for your time and service.
Avatar m tn I was recently in the emergency department for a bad side effect (vomiting) I had to an antibiotic I was taking called Zithromax. It was for acute bronchitis. I was only there for six hours but I was taken to different areas of the hospital for ultrasound and CT. The bed I was in looked kinda dirty and I wiped my nose a few times without washing my hands before. It has been six days since being released.
Avatar m tn but I am curious. In the course of the last theee months I have taken zithromax twice. Once for three days (1g) and then for four days (1gr) after a two months. In both cases I was protecting my chest from bronchitis as viral infections almost always seem to attack my chest. Now, the big question: why do I show ureoplasma since I have taken zithromax? I understand that these bacteria can grow back, but can they in just a couple of months (when my wife had her micro tests done..
Avatar m tn Honey, an upper respitory infection is far less serious than bronchitis, I bet you did have bronchitis, the z-pac(zithromax) brought it down to an URI, A doctor can make an educated guess that your headaches are from stress, but he/she can not know that unless they have ruled out all other posssibilities, have you had a test called a EEG or a CAT scan?? Also you are taking an excessivly high dose of tylenol, you could be harming your liver. Also do you have allergies?
1063644 tn?1278643267 I was in the ER on 1/1/11 and was sent home with Zithromax and a diagnosis of acute bronchitis, URI,and febrile illness. What the heck is febrile illness?
Avatar n tn Three weeks ago I went to the doctors and they told me I had acute bronchitis after giving me a chest x-ray and I was given 250mg of azithromycin to take for five days to treat it. The problem is i never took the medicine and now three weeks later i feel worse than ever. Orginally, I had a dry cough, no fever, no body aches but i did have sharp pain when i took a deep breath but i did have blood streaked sputum.
Avatar f tn It looks like what I was hacking up when I was fighting bronchitis and double pmnuemonia(sp?
Avatar f tn But, we followed her treatment of Qvar and albuterol inhalers, oral steroid and even zithromax (because 3-4 weeks in it turned into bronchitis) and none of that helped the cough. In other words, the albuterol doesn't seem to do anything positive for him. Is this really asthma? His coughs do have a tendency of turning into bronchitis. They always have to get really bad before they get better. Considering this last for a month or two, it is very rough for everyone.
Avatar n tn i have never befor had an abnormal cbc. i just finished a course of zithromax for pneumonia/bronchitis and on noprosyn for knee swelling and pain. could any of these medications cause these abnormal lab results? incidentally, the naprosyn is not helping with the knee pain and the swelling is getting worse. my main concern however, is the abnormal cbc. can you provide me with some answers. thank you.
Avatar m tn After a few days however my testicles ached after i drank a large amount of liqour. I took another zithromax dosage and this time 1g on the first day and 500mg for another two days. I also took doxy 100mg. bid for two weeks but my testicles still hurt. Was the treatment enough or a failure? Also my wife whom i had sex during the supposed incubation period also took 1g of zithromax and 5 days of 100mg. doxy bid.
454221 tn?1259445739 I don't think that repeat bronchitis means that you are going to have lung cancer. It does seem like you have had many infections in a short period of time though...maybe he should get a sputum sample to see what kind of bacteria are there. If it is something that isn't sensitive to zithromax (z pack), then that would explain your repeat infections and would mean that you need a different antibiotic.
Avatar m tn 1 gm of zithromax and 500gm of Cipro all in single dosage, is that all or do I need to see the doctor again
Avatar n tn My wife just called and the doc put my 2 year old on Zithromax for a week and also perscribed a cough medicine to help him sleep at night. The doc also prescribed a medicine for the nebulizer that will help stop the bronchial spasms so when the coughing does occurr it won't last for 2 minutes straight and he can catch his breath.
1580703 tn?1651904887 I'm not really sure anymore about taking zithromax as an asthma cure- my doctor said in rare cases it can cure asthma.
757137 tn?1347196453 you might just try eating one banana a day. That might help both your potassium levels and your hypoglycemia, as you say both are mild problems. And you might try supporting your adrenals with adaptogens such as eleuthero and ashwaganda. For exact potassium levels, that's hard, because potassium is a nutrient one has to be careful about -- you don't want too much, don't want too little. You might look into an electrolyte supplement -- and I don't mean Gator Aid!
5268376 tn?1406179712 I looked at Zithromax side effects, they vary by the dosage, single or multiple doses, doses in combination with another drug, and are listed as pre-marketing trials and post-marketing reports. Rhythm issues were reported less than 1% of the time in pre-marketing trials, and also in post-marketing reports. Post marketing reports are apparently voluntary and often include things clearly not related to the drug.
Avatar f tn I was on anitibiotics for Bronchitis and a day after I started taking it my ear started acting up. I was on a antibitiotic called Zithromax. I have heard that it can cause some problems with your ears. I was wondering if this is whats causing the problem? Or maybe it's the beginning of an ear infection? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I haven't been to a doctor yet because I have no clue if this will get better on its own or not.
Avatar n tn I used to have whitish liquidy discharge and pain in my urethra. After a course of zithromax, I no longer discharge but a light tingling sensation remains and the rash still remains. The rash fades when I take antimicrobial substances like coconut oil and olive leaf extract, but it never goes away completely. All of my tests for stds have come back negative. Is there any idea what this could be and how to cure it?
Avatar m tn I was prescribed 2 Grams of Zithromax and wondered if I could split it up over 2 days instead of taking the full 8 pills at once. I'm afraid of the upset stomach and diarrhea . Just wondering if I cansplit up the dosage and get the same results?
Avatar f tn Hello, a few times a year, I get swollen lymph glands under the jaw, and at the same time a sore throat and a high fever. My doctor prescribed me Zithromax and I was told to take it every time I have the same symptoms (500mg dose daily for three days). I have the same symptoms now and it is very painful, however I did have unprotected sex three days ago with someone who has apparently had unprotected sex themselves many times and never been tested.
214607 tn?1287677559 Yes, there are many that are okay during pregnancy. I too had to take 2 doses of antibiotics for a uti (different prescriptions). When I had a toothache (not while pregnant) my dentist prescribed Amoxycillon (dont know spelling of it) and it's okay to take during pregnancy.
1297091 tn?1272567794 No side effects and it is cheap and effective. I have chronic bronchitis, relatively severely, and take twice that dosage. It has allowed me to get off nasty medications that made me quite ill.
Avatar n tn Was prescribed Zithro 1 day dosage. Symptoms alleviated but still felt as if something was not right down there. I was also able to milk slight clear discharge from my penis I figured I'd wait it out to see if maybe symtpoms would go away. In mid August I masturbated and I got a really bad burning sensation/pain. Went to the ER and they tested for gon. and chlamydia. They treated me for gon with a shot & gave me 10 day 2 dosage of doxycycline just in case.
Avatar n tn I would be interested in learning if there are others with the combination of asthma and chronic bronchitis that are on Prednisone and what your dosage is. I attempt to take the minimum Prednisone necessary to keep the air passages open but I continue to worry about the trade-offs. Is it better to stay on high dosage and greater breathing comfort or "live on the dosage edge" (taking the minimum to breath) and suffer from the symptoms of asthma and chronic bronchitis.
Avatar f tn So I am taking prednisone a steroid for 13 days, and zithromax a one time dosage today, and robitussin DM for cough and chest congestion. The doc actually acidentally popped my ear drum today too, it sucked. He was sticking the instrament(sp) that looks inside the ears, and the ear drum was sooooo swollen it popped. So I had blood and puss running out of my ear for a while, until he flushed it out, so im now completely but temporarily deaf in my right ear lol.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with chlamydia and tested negative for gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV, I was prescribed the 1000mg dose of zithromax, I took the pills and ate two hours after I took the pill (the directions said take 1 hour prior to eating).
