Brief Answer:
Azithromycin oral suspensions are available.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can fully understand your concern.

Azithromycin may be given as a single dose in chlamydial infections.
The oral suspension is given in doses of 1 or 2 gram, as decided by your doctor.

It's well tolerated by most people.

In case your wife has systemic illness and is on treatment, certain precautions need be taken.

Hope your doubts are cleared.
Wish you good health.
