how do I take the 6 pills samitrogen ## It depends what you have... Usually, 500mg the first day and 250mg a day for the next four days. Certain infections are often cleared with a larger single or two day dose. Some infections can require 500mg a day for a longer duration. Google information for what you're trying to treat, not the medication you're trying. You'll be more apt to find information about what medications are effective and the proper dosages for that particular infection. ## That is correct, if you have the larger 500mg dosage, it is usually taken once a day, but if you have the lower 250mg dosage, usually 2 should be taken the first day, then one per day after that, until you finish them. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Azithromycin as possibly inclu...

Hi, I have Samitrogen 500 but mine came in a bottle with 9 capsules. Do I take the 2 and the rest of the pills daily after that? ## Hello, Geo! How are you? You should follow the instruction, as prescribed. Usually, it is 500mg taken once a day for most bacterial infections. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

how do i administer Samitrogen to treat an STI, i got the 500mg with 9 pills, do i need to finish all of them. ## Hello, Jo! How are you? Azithromycin is an antibiotic that can treat bacterial infections, but it may not be the correct one to treat yours, if you have one. It is also not the preferred one to treat UTI's.

Thinking I have an abscessed tooth. I have samitrogen on hand purchased in Mexico. Sell by date is Sep 2014. Are these still safe to take? ## Hello Sam! How are you? Unfortunately, I am not sure. Mexico does not regulate their medications like the U.S., so I don't know if that is an expiration date, or if it is still effective for awhile after that. It would be best to see your dentist, so he can prescribe an antibiotic for you, if one is required. Additionally, even after taking an antibiotic, you'll need to have the underlying cause of the infection treated, or it will keep returning. The FDA lists the typical side effects to antibiotics as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and dehydration. Does anyone know how the expirations work in Mexic...

Can anybody give a clear and concise answer, regarding administering a 9 count (500mg per item) of the antibiotic Samitrogen (Azitromicina)?

Can I take ambien and samitrogen at the same time, will it hurt me? ## Hello, Linda! How are you? There are no medications listed under the name Samitrogen. Did you possibly mean Lamotrigine? It is an anticonvulsant that is also used to treat some mood disorders. If so, there are no interactions listed between it and Ambien, though it's always best to double check this information to be sure. However, you may experience more side effects than usual, such as more dizziness, drowsiness and nausea.
