Prescribed biprofenid with azithromycin for ear infection. is it ok to just take antibiotic bc the nsaids make me extremely sick to my stomach. ?

YES: You can always avoid a symptomatic medication when you know you cannot tolerate it.You may be able to help your pain by holding moist heat to the side of your head (side with earache).For some reason diffuse heat clouds the brain's pain sensors.The Azith+ takes a while to start helping so plan to deal with it for a while.
