I took 500mg of Azithromycin for 3 days, completed course on the 01/02/23 (13days ago as of 14.02.2023). I see the half-life is 68hrs, would it still have effect on QT interval regarding taking other meds that also possibly affect the same?
If Azythromycin 2g single dose is immediately followed by bactrim 800+160 for 8 days (1 pill every 12h) don't side effects compound? For instance, if both mess with QT and/or cause diarrhea, having both doesn't increase risk of those side effects?
