A member asked:
Will azithromycin still work if you were to have diarrohea or vomit about 3 hours after taking the dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Diarrhea would not affect its absorption. The stomache will empty in 1-2 hours so vomitting 3 hours after taking pills will not affect their absorption.
