zithromax

Avatar n tn I told him my symptoms, and he gave zithromax and floxicillin. I took the floxicillin on Saturday, and the zithromax on Sunday. Sunday, overnight, I had diarrhea and a headache, which I hope came from the meds. On Monday, I went and saw my doctor because I still had symptoms, and had acquired a couple more. My penis became sensitive, and I just started getting mild lower abdominal cramping. She did two swabs for chlamidia and Gonorrhea.
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 f tn I was treated for Gonnorhea, and Clamydia with an injection and Zithromax. My partner was given Cipro for UTI, Suprax and Zithromax he started the Cipro last Thursday and when positive results came back yesterday started the other two meds, his symptoms were gone before starting the Zithromax and Suprax, I had no symptoms. My question is what is the percent of reinfection if we have sex over the weekend.
Avatar m tn For a recent burning sensation in the urethra no discharge, a single 2gm dose is Zithromax is taken. The burning sensation still exist after 1 day of taking the dose. After how long this burning sensation usually disappears following a single 2gm dose of Zithromax? Should ibuprofen be considered as well? Should any other medication be considered?
5268376 tn?1406179712 My doctor Prescribed Zithromax i time dose at 2 500mg pills for an infection, and I have history of benign pvc's and pac's , while taking it i felt horrible . I felt worse than i have ever felt in life. It gave me unclear thoughts, I couldn't drive due to a foggy mind, it made my heart race and skip , i actually had to go to the ER because i thought I would die.
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 m tn Hi all , ok here is my concern , I had an unprotected encounter with a girl woke up the next day and took 1g gram of zithromax ,as for the fear of catching nsu or Chlamydia, 9 days later i booked my self in for a full screening , and all my tests came back negitive , my worry is would me taking zithromax 9 days before the test effect the gonorrhea result , so in short for your infomation I took 1g of zithromax the morning after the encounter 9 days later i went to the Drs to be tested would
Avatar m tn he briefly mentioned that zithromax should be effective. Is it not the standard medication used?? The medication you mentioned was never discussed with me as they said Zithromax was "the standard for NSU". 1. Also if I had one test that was clear only for it to return but gone again after more zithromax/doxy would that not indicate mycoplasma was not the issue as it would never have gone away in the first place without moxifloxacin? 2.
Avatar m tn They gave me one large dose of zithromax and it is Tuesday and I am still having some discharge. Is this normal? Does this mean that the antibiotics didn't work? How long should I wait before the symptoms are gone? Thank you for your help.
Avatar m tn Dr, In Feb. 06 I suffered a blackout. I may have had a sexual encounter with a sex worker. I had a girlfriend at this time (now fiancee). We weren't having full sex at the time. (All screens came back neg. except for NSU which is recurring). Main concern is any possible damage I may cause/have caused to my fiancee. July 06 - Tested positive for NSU (no known bacteria found). - Prescribed 1g Zithromax in a single dose. - Was not called back to GUM & was told to continue on as normal.
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 m tn I had chlamydia. Was treated with 1 time Zithromax by 1 doc and 7 day doxicycline by another. Completed treatment Monday morning. No more discharge or testicle ache. For the past few days though my eurethra tip has been inflammed and it is puffy and irritated by the bottom part of the end of my eurethra on the tip of my penis.
Avatar f tn My eight year old is allergic to amoxicillin, zithromax, clindamycin, and cefzil. We have seen an allergist, and he said there are no tests for antibiotics and that "we have a problem." Can someone please guide me in what to do next? 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.
5284491 tn?1365979996 Yes I had been diagnosed by a Dr and he said it is Gonorrhea but he does not tell me what drug he gives. He gives the pills himself in a resealable plastic sachet. He is a well known doctor in our place but he does not want his patients to know his pills. I have been reading on Google and so far Azithromycin is my best bet. I am hoping i could get free consultation from you before I take it for I can't afford a Doctor again. I am from Philippines where poverty is very common.
Avatar f tn I had never heard of Zithromax being a medication that could place a person at risk for that. After some searching, I only found ONE article that lists some stats on a person with serotonin syndrome being on Zithromax at the time, it was 9 or 10 people, and it doesn't state that the Zithromax was suspected to be a culprit, but rather just reported that those patients happened to be on that at the time. What were your symptoms that took you to the ER?
Avatar f tn I just finished a 5 day z pack that was prescribed for a sinus infection that was giving me severe headaches. My heart started to feel funny and I looked at the insert which said could cause irregular hearbeats. I've taken this medication in the past with no issue. I do not have any cardiac disease but I do smoke, should I just wait for about 5 days to see if once the meds are out of my system I'm ok, or should I go see a doctor or go to the ER?
Avatar f tn Did your doctor know that you were pregnant when prescribing this medication? Zithromax is FDA pregnancy category B. Zithromax is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby (but it doesn't mean it's 100% safe). If you were that sick and your doctor knew you were pregnant he/she must have felt it was worth the slight risk.
Avatar n tn I stopped after this and when I came home had some symtoms which could be chlamydia so got a urine test and medication. However, the doctor did tell me to come back if I developed any red spots. Today is about 2 weeks after exposure and I am pretty sure I found a Chancre on the inside of my leg in the groin area. I am wondering if the Zithromax would make it pointless to get a blood test for this now or should I wait?
Avatar n tn i was treated for chlamydia a week ago, give zithromax, still waiting for the test. but 3 days later my right testicle was sore, a week later i was getting clear sticky penile discharge after urination, but more so after a bowel movement. there is not a lot, and it looks like precum i'm worried the zithromax didn't work and i still have something. can i take pills too soon after sex? i took them the day after intercourse do yu think it could be a prostate problem?
Avatar f tn Well since you didn't test and mediction just thrown at it, not sure what it could be. It could be a STD or someother type of infection. I would suggest wait another week, see how symptoms go and then return to the Dr for testing if symptoms don't get better. Use condoms.
Avatar m tn If you took the zithromax (anti-bacterial medication) before the test, then yes it would effect the bacterial STD test. Zithromax won't affect the Hepatits B as its a virus (anti-bacterials don't do anything to virus parasites).
