A member asked:
If azithromycin does not work for persistent cough what is the alternative?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The alternative has to be the result of having a possible diagnosis or cause for the cough. From reflux to allergies and or post viral due to inflammation among the most common, heart or lung disease may be involved as well. See your doc in follow up, imaging may be needed.
