Zithromax Suspension


Generic Name: Azithromycin Oral Suspension (az-ith-roe-MYE-sin)
Brand Name: Zithromax

Zithromax Suspension is used for:

Treating mild to moderate infections caused by certain bacteria. It may also be used alone or with other medicines to treat or prevent certain infections in persons with advanced HIV infection. However, Zithromax Suspension will not work for colds, flu, or other viral infections. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Zithromax Suspension is a macrolide antibiotic. It slows the growth of, or sometimes kills, sensitive bacteria by reducing the production of important proteins needed by the bacteria to survive.

Do NOT use Zithromax Suspension if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Zithromax Suspension or to other macrolide antibiotics (eg, erythromycin)
  • you are taking pimozide

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Zithromax Suspension:

Some medical conditions may interact with Zithromax Suspension. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding.
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances.
  • if you have liver or kidney problems or abnormal heart rhythms

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Zithromax Suspension. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

  • Rifampin because the effectiveness of Zithromax Suspension may be decreased
  • Anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), digoxin, disopyramide,pimozide, or rifampin because the actions and side effects of these medicines may be increased
  • Theophylline because blood levels may temporarily decrease after stopping Zithromax Suspension

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Zithromax Suspension may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Zithromax Suspension:

Use Zithromax Suspension as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

  • Zithromax Suspension may be taken with or without food.
  • Do not take aluminum- or magnesium-containing antacids at the same time with Zithromax Suspension. Take Zithromax Suspension at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after antacids.
  • Shake Zithromax Suspension well before each use. Use a measuring device marked for medicine dosing. Ask your pharmacist for help if you are unsure of how to measure your dose.
  • Zithromax Suspension works best if it is taken at the same time each day.
  • To clear up your infection completely, continue using Zithromax Suspension for the full course of treatment even if you feel better in a few days.
  • If you miss a dose of Zithromax Suspension, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Important safety information:

  • Zithromax Suspension may cause drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, or lightheadedness. Do not drive, operate machinery, or do anything else that could be dangerous until you know how you react to Zithromax Suspension. Using Zithromax Suspension alone, with certain other medicines, or with alcohol may lessen your ability to drive or to perform other potentially dangerous tasks.

  • If severe diarrhea, stomach pain/cramps, or bloody stools occur, contact your doctor immediately. This could be a symptom of a serious side effect requiring immediate medical attention. Do not treat diarrhea without consulting your doctor.
  • Long-term or repeated use of Zithromax Suspension may cause a second infection. Your doctor may want to change your medicine to treat the second infection. Contact your doctor if signs of a second infection occur.
  • It is important to use Zithromax Suspension for the full course of treatment. Failure to do so may decrease the effectiveness of this treatment and may increase the risk that the bacteria will no longer be sensitive to Zithromax Suspension and it will not be able to be treated by this or certain other antibacterial medicines in the future.
  • Zithromax Suspension is effective only against bacteria. It is not effective for treating viral infections (eg, the common cold).
