Avatar m tn HI, I would like to know please if like a day or two following 1,5g single dose of zithromax can someone develop an itchy skin rash for 6 days with red spots on the torso and few pimples on the arms and legs, nothing on the face or neck.

1569985 tn?1328247482 I have done that when mine was high and then gone back to regular dosing. I hope you find the problem quickly. Let us know what you find out if you feel it would be of help to others on this drug. BTW, I am doing better on 1/2 of a 25 mg. Atenolol at night and nothing thru the day. My heart rate is up a little and I am not used to that, so I'm feeling a little hyper. I am hoping it will level out and I will feel more energetic. My dizzy spells are also less.
Avatar f tn So, you were diagnosed with serotonin syndrome due to the Zithromax being taken concurrently with the Zoloft? I had never heard of Zithromax being a medication that could place a person at risk for that.
Avatar m tn Though you tested negative for the bacterial infections, you were given Zithromax in case (as a back up plan) you might have caught anything. Its seems like you didn't catch anything since you waited a week and hopefully you didn't have symptoms. Your original doctor is a good doctor and the doze of zithromax you took was a pre-caution, and it took care of any bacteria that the tests may have been missed. "So what an i do now?
1241508 tn?1313006082 ) without that information they might not know how to answer your question. Either way, I do hope that someone can provide you with a helpful answer. I think that you might have to elaborate though on what and where you are using it for. In addition to anything I have mentioned, please keep in mind, that while I or others may have extensive knowledge in many areas, you should always seek professional medical advice from your own physician, as it pertains to medical conditions or concerns.

Duration of Treatment – Treatment with PegIntron/REBETOL of Interferon Alpha-naïve Patients The treatment duration for patients with genotype 1 is 48 weeks.
Avatar m tn I am told and have read that Zithromax can and often does make people sick to their stomach and throw up -- particularly in a 2g dose. Is there anything that can prevent this? What about a half cup of milk or a little food such as a slice of bread?
Avatar m tn t remember the name, but I believe he said that he gave me 4 times the normal dose) and 3 zithromax pills at the same time. He also told me "that I might be one of those cases that need a second treatment". My doctor wants to test me for Syphillis and HIV (via "antibody test") at 15-days. He states that he runs blood through 3 different hiv tests at that time and that his results are so specific that they would have a 99.9% accuracy.
Avatar f tn If you are on triple therapy for genotype 1 and undetectable then your doc is following AASLD protocol for anemia management Anemia developed among recipients of both PIs. Hemoglobin decreases below 10 g/dL (grade 2 toxicity) occurred in 49% of patients who received a BOC regimen compared to 29% of those who received the SOC regimen, whereas 9% had a hemoglobin decline of <8.5 g/dL (grade 3 toxicity).
Avatar m tn It has been my experience with hospitals that they will give you information on all medication they give you before you leave. They should also have explained it before it was given to you, but as scared as you are of this, you might not have comprehended what they said. Try to find your paperwork and look to see if the information on the medication was given to you.
Avatar m tn I know that you will say if I am concerned, I should get tested, but based on this additional information, what would you say? The zithromax would have taken care of it, if there had been anything, wouldn't it? thanks, this is my last post.
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 f tn Hi there- Sorry to hear about your false negative. I don't know a whole lot about this except for that I had to do a round of antibiotics (Zithromax) for bronchitis in April. On the medication instructions for the antibiotic, it clearly stated that there could be a drug interaction with Oxycontin. So I called my pharmacist, who, in turn, called my PCP. They said to continue with the meds and watch for changes. And call if I noticed a need for more or less pain medication.
Avatar f tn Call your local pharmacist. We at MedHelp are not allowed to give out dosing instructions. Your pharmacist will be able to tell you exactly how to dose the medications. If your regular pharmacy is closed on Sunday, call any pharmacist availabe at your local grocery store or drug store such as Walgreens, CVS, or RiteAid.
Avatar n tn I asked our medic at work about it, he said more than likely it was not an STD because of how fast it appeared. I took 750mg of zithromax orally just in case. It has only been 2 days not other symptoms. Could this just be an irritation from this sexual experience, is it ever normal to have symptoms? The medic said it could be fluids from the night before.
1201433 tn?1328997637 Are you participating in the 400mg dosing cohort? So far, it appears ANA598 will get you to cEVR much faster in the early treatment. Should hear more on the 400mg dosing cohorts around the end of March.
Avatar n tn The prednisolone and vitamin E would be for the auto-immune part of the disease and the Zithromax should cover the secondary bacterial infection. Zithromax is excellent for upper respiratory infections and it also is effective against Bartonella. I would continue with the Lysine for a possible Herpes infection just in case. It is just an amino acid so there is absolutely no contraindications.
Avatar m tn I was treated with cipro, with no results and then went to the ER and was given a shot of rocephin, a 1000 mg of Zithromax and prescribed doxycycline. The discharge went away, and the lymph swelling in my left armpit, left elbow and behind my left knee went down by about 1/3, but stayed swollen and irritated for over a year. I had unprotected sex after that with only one woman for a few months, but I always pulled out and never ejaculated in her.
Avatar m tn Also, because he saw I didn’t seem convinced, he just gave me 2g of Zithromax (8 tablets) which he said would take care of Gono and Chlamydia if I had it. I took it in one shot. I came to this reputed site for a second opinion. i) Does this event carry any risk for HIV or any STD? Would you recommend any testing? I’m thinking of doing a HIV Duo test at 28 days and a VDRL ii) Assuming I had a RECTAL infection from this, would 2g of Zithromax clear Gono and Chlamydia?

9648 tn?1290091207 If I were you I would leave the dosage issue alone. I trusted my clinic nurses fully, there not gonna do anything that would chance you failing tx. As far as the blue bombers go, just keeping up with taking all those a day and keeping the count right is like a small job in itself.lol One thing I've read about in your case is not being able to get blood test results. I was always able to get mine whenever I asked.
