Second guessing: You need to discuss your concerns with the doctor who is prescribing these and determine the reasons why. Without your full prior medical history and info about your current illness it would be foolish to comment on the therapy you are receiving. Talk to your doctor.

Thanks for asking!: Depending on the type of pneumonia you have, the Azithromycin might be the appropriate medication for it. Please follow up with your doctor on your condition.
