Common Questions and Answers about Zithromax ear infection

zithromax

Avatar f tn s a godsend of a medication lol. I had a double ear infection, double sinus infection, and stage 1 phumonia(sp), and Zithromax had me cleared up and feeling better withen the same night of taking it. I was also worried to take it at first, so I called almost every pharmacy in town and asked about it, and I got the same answer, which is it's safe, and I even called my doc and double checked with him lmao. Zithromax does cross into the placenta, but not as much as other antibiotics.
Avatar f tn zithromax is amoxicillin
Avatar f tn Come to find out, I have a double ear infection, 3 way sinus infection, and stage 1 phnuemonia(sp). 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.
Avatar n tn It is usually not the drug of choice for UTI but is mostly used in otitis media (infection of the middle ear), tonsillitis, laryngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and sinusitis. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

Avatar f tn Hello, for the past few days I've been been real tender below my ears. Plus my right ear feels a little clogged up. I've tried popping my ears but my right ear refuses to pop. 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?
Avatar f tn So now im on keflex, zithromax, albuterol, zofran, tums, cough drops, robitussin dm, and got a shot of rocefin in the arse. How does an ear infection turn into pneumonia? ??? I didn't even know that was possible! And my doc says taking all these meds is safe but that seems like an awful lot to me.
Avatar f tn I have had terrible headaches and some facial pressrue and som eleft ear pain. About a month ago I had it also and did 3 round sof zithromax, then had a ct scan of the sinuese and said there was no infeciton. Now I have a lot of post nasal draninge down my throat a bad cough and did the z pac again but not much better. Was told to take cipro one pill nad it flared up my intersitital cysitits so now he has called in doxycline.
Avatar n tn Zithromax is used to treat many different types of infections caused by bacteria, such as respiratory infections, skin infections, ear infections, and sexually transmitted diseases. Got this from googling it, and this is just about as much info as I can provide. Only thing I can advise is to ask him to go along with him to the Dr to find out more as to why you have to take something. Or tell him you need more info as to what he has.
Avatar m tn , I have had unprotected sex with a girlfriend and after three weeks i experienced a cloudy discharge from my penis and also a tingling sensation which I suspect as a chlamydial infection or NGU. I took 1g of zithromax and also took 5days of doxycycline 100mg. bid. After the medication my symptoms disappeared. 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.
Avatar f tn My doctor was hoping the allergist would help guide us for future treatments. I am fearful for any infection like strep throat, ear or skin infections, we have run out of options.
3180166 tn?1344481813 It sounds like an inner ear problem in addition to sore throat and usually when you ears are infected it can throw your balance off and sometimes make you naseated. Has anyone checked your ears?
Avatar f tn the doctor prescribe me with zithromax for 6 day!! will that cure the bacteriA??
Avatar n tn I apologize for the extra message - the week before the encounter I also had an Emergency room episode that was diagnosed as a fairly severe ear infection. If I remember correctly the doctor prescribed an injection of rocephin(?) (intramuscular) - she didn't seem to think the zithromax I was currently taking would take care of it. - would rocephin(?) also play a role in preventing Chlamydial infection five days later? I should have brought this up earlier - it didn't seem relevant.
Avatar m tn In oktober my wife needed to that Zithromax 1.5g over 2 days for an infection of her ear. I then also took Zithromax 1.5g and doxycycline 100mg 2 x a day for 5 days against possible chlamydia/ngu. I have a few questions: 1) Can I get gonorrhea or ngu from this brief oral? 2) Would the Zithromax 1 day after the exposure block or prevent gonorrhea or ngu? 3) What about the 4 pills of augmentin? 4) I’m afraid that the Zithromax just made gonorrhea symptoms mild.
1949068 tn?1449628519 Hello, I have been having an low grade fever for a month or month and an half as of today? I just finished up my antibiotics (Augmentin XR) today also. Still have an low grade fever that goes from 99.0-99.9 & symptoms also include: sore/stiff neck, very sore throat (off & on), hoarseness (off &on), serve headache, drainage into my throat, serve facial pain, sinus pressure, body aches and ear aches. I was diagnosed with an ear & sinus infection.
1901977 tn?1333991726 If you end up with a fever, even low grade, call right away. I was very sick with a flu like illness at 6 weeks and I had an ear infection that wasn't going away. I was on augmentin for 10 days. There are antibiotics that have been used commonly in pregnancy with no effect ever seen. The big downside is pregnant women are more prone to yeast infections and the antibiotics are almost a guarantee of one.

Avatar m tn I have been given 2 x 500 mg capsules for my chlamydia infection but as i don't like taking tablets I'v opened the capsules and poured the contents into a cup of tea with 1 Teaspoon full of sugar. To make sure i have consumed the full dose i made another cup of tea in the same cup and consumed it again. Two weeks later my older brother has told me the heat would of rendered the anti-biotic useless and that i still would have chlamydia.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with a bacterial ear infection in Nov 2011 which the Dr said had spread to my throat, and was given a seven day course of cephalexin (keflex). The throat instantly felt better but the ear infection appeared to spread from the left ear to my right ear (fullness, popping, pain). I was prescribed a five day course of Zithromax over the phone which seemed to help, the ears drained fluid and no longer felt full but I still had pain behind my left ear and popping in both ears.
Avatar n tn I do not have a tempature or any visable swelling on the mouth, my teeth seriosuly hurt if cold water goes on them, no ear pain, but im getting no better, I am currently taking antibiotics given from a relative, Zithromax 250mg to see if that will help, any advice?
5915949 tn?1396188227 I took a z-pack two months ago for a double ear infection, i was 20 weeks and no problems. And i just finished a different course of antibiotics for a uti. Both meds were class b drugs. The benefits def. outweighed the risks for me. But its up to you and whatever you decide.
Avatar f tn I was given zithromax pills to cure an infection, the pills were to big for me to swallow so I let them dissolve in a little water, then drunk them. Will they have the same effect even though I did not swallow them whole????
Avatar m tn Hi Everyone, I have been having a small lump or feeling stuck on the left side of my throat with slight ear pain on the same left side very minor. I also noticed a swollen lymph node on same side not sure if its really swollen it feels hardened size of my pinky nail. I went to ENT earlier this month and he checked everything said nothing is growing or infection or wasn't worried about the node so thats a good sign I guess.
Avatar f tn After the test I was told that I had an infection in my urethra and the zithromax would cure it, but these symptoms are back again, I read that sometimes a singlr dose of zithromax sometimes isn't enough to cure a uretha infection and a longer course of anti-biotics may be required, it his true?
