I was diagnosed with strep throat after suffering with major fatigue and an aching neck and upper back for close to a week.
I have only take the first dose which is 2, 250 mg tablets. It killed my stomach and had me stuck to the commode for hours but I woke up feeling like a new creature!

I have been prescribed and have used the "Z-Pack" 4 times in the last 10 years. I have used it for bacterial infection in my throat, which affected my tonsils, causing swelling and major discomfort. I have never suffered side effects and have always felt better within 48 hours of the first dose.

Although having to take an antibiotic for only 5 days is a big improvement over trying to keep track for twice that time, unfortunately I am not one of the people that can take Zithromax, although I've tried several times.

I've had both chronic and acute bacterial bronchitis, but each time I've taken a Z-pak it has torn my stomach UP. Even when taken on a full stomach or with milk, it really has upset my tummy to the point I have to discontinue its use. :(

I use this only when I have a bacterial infection. I am allergic to two different classes of antibiotics: penecillin and sulfa. This means that finding a good antibiotic is a challenge. Zithromax is a godsend because it works really well for me across a range of ailments. I also like the fact that in a few pills I can get the full treatment of antibiotics instead of having to take three pills a day for ten days. When I had a series of ear aches and had to take a lot of antibiotics, I got yeast infections as a side effect. Since my ear infections have been gone and I take antibiotics maybe once every two or three years, I have not had this side effect.

I love the convenience of only having to take an antibiotic 5 days, but it staying in my system for 10 to ensure the infection is completely cleared up. Relief from symptoms is fast and I have always obtained a complete eradication of the bacterial infection within the given treatment time. I have never experienced any ill effects from it's usage. Wonderful product!

Moyboy999 - 06-29-2009

I am prone to upper respiratory infections & bronchitis and a 5 day Z-Pack usually does the trick and gets me back up on my feet. The medicine is pretty strong though & I usually have issues tolerating it the first day with it's double-strength dose. I usually end up with a mild bout of diarrhea. As a result, I try to take it on a full stomach and eat plenty of rice to mitigate the effects.

Either way, 1 night of diarrhea is definitely worth getting rid of a nasty respiratory infection within 5 days.

Ito - 06-08-2009

I had been sick for awhile. It was the common cold. But nothing seemed to work on the cold/flu symptoms that I had. I usually don't take anything unless really necessary. In the second week of my illness, the cold worsened instead of getting better so I took the Zithromax.
I was feeling better by the afternoon of the first day's dosage. It worked fast and well.
The only side effect it had on me was that my stomach could not take the strength of the medicine. I made sure I took it on a full stomach but it still made me go to the bathroom and my stomach hurt.

My two year old had a nasty ear infection that would not go away. He had an allergic reaction to the penicillin that he was prescribed weeks earlier so his doctor decided to see if azithromycin would work. First of all, my baby liked the taste so it was easy for me to get him to take it. He had to take it twice a day (every twelve hours). After the first two days of my baby taking it, I knew it was working because he no longer had a fever. My baby's urine also had the smell of the medicine. I hoped and prayed that my baby would not get an allergic reaction to the medicine and he did not. At the fifth day, my baby finished the medicine and I took him to a follow up visit with his doctor. The doctor checked my baby's ears and said that he no longer had an infection. I was pleased because the treatment with this medicine was faster than the normal ten day treatment. I will request this medicine again if my baby develops another ear infection.
