Hello Doctor,
I’ve been diagnosed with strep throat, but I have had very bad reactions to amoxicillin in the past. I was wondering if azithromycin would be a good alternative treatment for strep throat? Will it help clear up the infection, or should I consider other options?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Yes, azithromycin can be an effective alternative treatment for strep throat, especially if you have had adverse reactions to amoxicillin. However, it's important that your throat be properly assessed first to ensure that it's the right course of treatment. A healthcare professional may suggest additional or alternative medications based on your specific condition. Please consult with a doctor to discuss the best treatment plan for you.
Thanks
