I took it once a day every day. My dermatologist this week took me off of the azithromycin. At times the worst of the symptoms was a VERY upset stomach. This occurred once a month or less. My acne has cleared but I am also taking a drug called Spironolactone, which helps the hormones. I have been taking Spironolactone for a year and six months now. I feel confident saying that these two drugs combined worked great for me. It was worth taking both to clear my skin. However I am very relived to be off of the Zithromax, if no other reason but not having to remember to take the med. I also researched the drug and could not find too much info either. I would talk with your dermatologist about your concerns and if it is not working than be honest. Before I was prescribed the Zithromax, I had an other prescription that made me sick. I could not eat and was very nausea. I talked to my doctor and she admitted that what she had prescribed doesn't normally affect people, so at that point she knew I was sensitive to medicine. The truth will be known in a month or so to see if the acne is gone now that I am off the Zithromax. Also I changed my cleansing and moisturizing routine in the morning and evening. Discussing with my dermatologist what type of products would be good for me. Good luck to you and hope you find what works best for your skin and body. I took Zithromax for my acne for 11 months.

I know I took it when I had a cold. As far as acne, I'm not sure what it will & will not do for it. If I’m not mistaking that is an antibiotic. I know I took it when I had a cold.
