Does azithromycin cause weight gain if taken for a week ?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Azithromycin (Zithromax) does not cause weight gain, regardless of whether it's taken for 1 day or 1 month. However, it can cause nausea and sometimes even diarrhea or vomiting... which means it might cause temporary mild weight loss, due to not wanting to eat.
