A member asked:
Will 500 mgs of azithromycin take care of infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infection: This depends on the type of infection. This is an antibiotic and it covers bacterial infections, not viruses. And it does not cover all bacterial infections. In addition, the antibiotic should be given as 500 mg day one, then 250 mg days 2-5.
