A member asked:

I did an antibiotic(zithromax) treatment to cure a cold. after that treatment, my digestive system wasnt the same. since then, i have intestine noises, malabsorption yellowish stool. my total bilirubin:1.39 mg/dl, indirect: 0.84 mg/dl, alt 58.1 u/l?

Z pack : Zithromax is so overused for an upper respiratory infection. most of which never need it because they are mostly viral . Antibiotics can cause GI side effects that need to be addressed by a doctor visit . Your liver seems to be inflamed, this need investigation

Dr Singh and another doctor agreed
