I am starting 3 antibiotics longterm for multiple lung cond. can't figure out how to handle equally spaced doses! 3times a week, says be careful to take at same time etc. ok, 7 days in a week... even my algebra doesn't help😕. Help?
Qual antibiótico?
Azitromicina tem uma dose profilática popular de 3 x 250mg por semana, tomada no dia 1, dia 3 e dia 5, depois novamente no dia 1, etc. Ou seja, deixando um intervalo de 2 dias em vez de um após a terceira dose. Parece funcionar bem para nós que a tomamos e sugiro que outros antibióticos possam estar OK nesse esquema (em preferência a tomá-lo de uma maneira complicada e confusa de três vezes diferentes do dia)
Thank you! Put my mind at ease...
I take them on Monday, Wednesday & Friday, first thing in the morning!
Oi JP
Estou tomando Azitromicina 3 vezes por semana, o que venho fazendo nos últimos 12 meses. Tomo segunda, quarta e sexta-feira, às 7h, no mesmo horário.
Também estou tomando Tobramicina duas vezes por dia, por inalação, às 9h e às 21h, diariamente.
Isso funciona muito bem para mim. Espero que essa informação ajude um pouco.

3 vezes por semana é a cada dois dias.
Absolutely does help. They could have been a little more clear when giving this to us.. or, to me! So thankful for your feedback.
I take azithromycin and the directions are every other day.
Didn't know to take it at the same time each time, but I do take it in the evening, so I'll make sure it's at the same time.
The things that you can learn on this website, this is great.

Agree!!
Hiya,
When I first started AZ it was 250ml every day for 30 days but the right dose is Mon / Wed / Fri every week,skip Sat / Sun. and for me it's the monings,is working well
Everyone has been so helpful! I was fretting over the instructions to take evenly spaced, same time of day. I am on 3 antibiotics now and all are 3 times a wk. i appreciate all the helpful clarifications from those of you who have been on meds for a while... thank you thank you!
hi i take mine on monday wednesday friday at 7am an hour before food
Thank you! That seems to be general consensus, and I appreciate your confirming. Take care.
I was prescribed to take the same antibiotic Mon, Wed and Fri. When I did take it, it made my Ulcerative Colitis flare up. So my family doctor suggested only taking it when I get a lung infection? Anyone else have his issue?
Secondly I feel awful with flu like symptoms. Tired, cold, . But no couching or phlegm. I always feel very poor in general which is frustrating but they have tested everything and keep saying it is just the bronnchectisos. This seems to get worse at times and is very frustrating.
