When to Seek Medical Attention

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, high fever (over 101°F or 38.3°C), or persistent vomiting after starting azithromycin. These could indicate a serious complication.

Symptoms Requiring Immediate Attention

Don’t delay seeking medical help if you notice any new or worsening symptoms, such as painful urination, unusual vaginal discharge, or testicular pain. These could signify complications or a treatment failure.

Similarly, if your symptoms don’t improve after completing the full course of azithromycin, schedule a follow-up appointment. Your doctor may need to perform additional tests or prescribe alternative treatment.

Remember, early intervention is key. Contact your doctor if you have any concerns about your treatment or experience unexpected side effects.
