Side effects to Zithromax
I’ve been on Zithromax for 5 days. My doctor put me on it for a lower respiratory infection. I’ve been feeling slightly better, but I keep feeling lightheaded and dizzy. I took my last dose today. I think the medicine is making me feel this way. Should I see a doctor? Thanks.

Yes you should inform your treating doctor about the side effects so that an alternative medication can be prescribed. Apart from that make sure to stay well hydrated and eat well while recovering.
