A member asked:
Can you crush azithromycin after surgical abortion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably OK but...: ...maybe not necessary. The pills are not timed-release, so crushing won't affect absorption or effectiveness against infection. But if you're one of those folks who have difficulty swallowing pills, speak with your doctor or clinic about the powder version of azithromycin, intended for mixing with water and then drinking.
