A member asked:
Took azithromycin 500mg 2 pills at a time for chlamydia and 30 minutes later i vomit would the pills have gotten into my system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Thirty minutes is not long enough for any significant amount of that medicine to have reached the absorptive areas of your digestive system. Pill/tablet fragments were likely visible within the vomited material. I would contact the treating provider for further care.
