What can be done to stop from having stomach problems from erythromycin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Take with food: Erythromycin is known to cause stomach problems. Always take with yogurt or some other palatable food. Sometimes one has to take it with anti nausea medicine. Therefore newer version of Erythromycin ( azihromycin) is available, if you absolutely cannot tolerate it.
