 1  Pneumonia Absolutely ruthless anxiety/panic as well as severe loss of appetite and intense nausea; Intense heart pounding I already posted my review on the AZYTHROMICIN askapatient page but this one seems to receive more activity. I took two z-packs 12 days apart. The first Z-pack I finished but the second I only got 3 days into before getting hit with vomiting, nausea and anxiety/panic like I could never fathom. Today is DAY 17 after my lose dose of the 2nd z-pack and while I do think things have gotten better, I am still experiencing considerable anxiety and negative intrusive thoughts as well as minimal appetite if any. I don't remember what it feels like to be hungry and devour a meal. It also seems like the nausea, loss of appetite and anxiety are all interconnected. When one is present they're all present. When one gets worse they call get worse. I have never experienced anything like this in my life. I can't recall having anxiety or panic issues EVER. Aside from stage fright for public speaking situations, I have always been easy-going and cool as a cucumber. If you have had identical symptoms (incessant anxiety, gloomy thoughts, loss of appetite, nausea) please E-mail me and let me know how things played out for you and if you did anything to alleviate the side effects. Technically the drug should be out of my system by now but it sure does not feel like it. M 33

 1  Respiratory Infection First day- extreme dizzy episodes...felt very agitated. But have been told to finish, so I did. Each day was anxiety, blurry vision, dry throat, and dizzy spells. I had a few heart palpitations but not enough to be alarmed. My last pill was 7 days ago, but I am still dealing with headache/ pressure mainly on the tight side and extreme anxiety! Pretty sure I had a panic attack last night...I hope it leaves my system very soon! I have taken this before and don’t recall any symptoms , but I WILL NEVER take this again. 43 5 days

 1  acute bronchitis Took prescribed dose of 2 pills the first day and 1 pill for the next 4 days. Have taken this drug a few years back with no side effects. However, after finishing the last dose began experiencing SEVERE ABDOMINAL CRAMPING, SEVERE ANXIETY, loose stools, constipation, low back pain, fatigue, and sleeping problems. It is now 7 weeks since I finished these meds and I am still experiencing these side effects. They are definitely lessening but by baby steps each day. Has anyone experienced these lingering side effects and for how long? This was a generic and I truly believe these generics are full of unknown garbage fillers that are harming us. F 75 5 days

 1  Strep Throat This is after first dose. I had very vivid, gory bad dreams. I work up once in the night with bad dreams and thoughts and went back to sleep. I woke up a second time with a completely different vivid and violent night mare. I’m sensitive to drugs like Benadryl and did not realize this had a side effect like this for me. I am going to call my doctor today to see what they recommend. F 24 5 days

 1  Strep throat So i was prescribed by my GP to take this antibiotic. 500mg twice a day for 2 and half days. i.e 2500mg in 2 and half days. It did work on me but left me major side effects. After 4 days of completion of the course i started having lose stools. i would just rush to the washroom if i ate something or even had a glass of water. Frequent urination, anxiety, fear, depression. I used to sleep atleast 14-16 hours in the day. I have had panic attacks, shortness of breath. loss of appetite. i lost 3kgs in 1 week. have had a very bad experience. Now 2 weeks after the completion of dose i am still having drowsiness and fatigue. I dont understand whats happening with me. is there out anyone facing the same thing as i am? Pls get in touch!

 4  Bronchial infection One week after first dose: extreme GERD, nausea, vomiting, severe dizziness, stomach pain, weakness, brain fog. Received a Zpak from an Urgent Care doctor for a bronchial infection. I do not use antibiotics often - when I do, they work immediately. This Zpak knocked out the infection quickly. I didn’t experience side effects until one week later. They were very severe. I could not keep food down (even low acid, alkaline foods) without having terrible acid reflux. Water and ice chips also caused acid backup. Dizziness kept me lying still in bed. Stomach pains were a constant. Muscle weakness throughout. I’ve never had an adverse reaction to other antibiotics other than mild D a few days after starting. Never anything at this level of discomfort. Poison! Will never take it again. F 61 5 days
