Precautions
Do not take Zithromax if you are allergic to azithromycin or any other macrolide antibiotic or any of the other ingredients present in the pill.
If you think you may be pregnant, or are trying to get pregnant or are breastfeeding, inform your doctor. The administration of Zithromax is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation, unless your doctor believes that the potential benefits of treatment to the mother outweigh the possible risks to the developing fetus or infant.
Azithromycin should not be used in patients with pneumonia who are judged to be inappropriate for outpatient oral therapy because of moderate to severe illness or risk factors such as any of the following: patients with nosocomially acquired infections, patients with known or suspected bacteremia, patients requiring hospitalization, elderly or debilitated patients, or patients with significant underlying health problems.
Because azithromycin is principally eliminated via the liver, caution should be exercised when azithromycin is administered to patients with impaired hepatic function.
Prescribing Zithromax (azithromycin) in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection or a prophylactic indication is unlikely to provide benefit to the patient and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
