Zithromax Z-Pak (Azithromycin)

Do’s

The dosage of Zithromax Z-Pak is typically based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Take this medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

Zithromax Z-Pak is usually taken orally, once daily, with or without food. If you experience stomach upset, you may take this medication with food.

Take this antibiotic at evenly spaced times, and to help remember, take it at the same time(s) every day.
