Azee Azithromycin For Sinusitis And Dosing

Updated

Hi, I have a blister pack with 6 white round unmarked tablets. It is labeled AZEE 250 Azithromycin Tablets IP 250 mg manufactured by Cipla. Is this genuine Azithromycin?

Also, I have a sinus infection and when I have been prescribed a Z-PAK I have always been prescribed and 2 pills (250 mg each) on the first day and one pill each for the next 4 days. I have read online that 3 daily doses of 2 pills (250 mg each) is what is typically prescribed for sinusitis. Which is correct?

Thank you!

Yes, that is Azithroymcin and the dosage and frequency can vary, depending on the severity of the infection being treated. Have you consulted your doctor?

This medication may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

250mg Azithromycin Tablets
Take once a day for 5 days.
Take two the first days dose and then one tablet on each of the next 4 days. The medicine keeps working for days 6-10
Take your tablet as close to the same time each day as you can. Write down the time so you have no guessing.

You have rather condescending tone to your answer.
What are your qualifications? If any?
