Q: how do i know if my azithromyacin for chlamydia is extended release? there are 4 pills. can i crush or split them?

: I presume they are 4 pills of azithromycin of 250 mg each. If so, you are supposed to take 4 pills at once. In case of swallowing difficulty of pill, pills can be substituted by resuspended liquid form. You can get detailed information from your pharmacist who filled your prescription.
