Can Azithromycin, Advil And Ibuprofen Be Taken Together?
Good evening, I am wondering if it is safe to take Azithromycin, Advil Sinus and Congestion relief (ibuprofen and Phenylephrine) and Nyquil together? My 18-year old son is on his 4th day of a sinus infection plus cough, is in pain and can t sleep. Thanks so much!
Hello, Thanks for the query. Usually antibiotics (Azithromycin), Ibuprofen, phenylephrine and other anticold remedies can be taken together. There are interactions between these drugs. But if the combinations contain a higher dose of antihistamine then drowsiness may be seen. In such a situation it is better to avoid driving any vehicle or operating any machines. Usually anti cold medications may be needed for 5 to 6 days or a bit longer if the attack is severe. Thanks.
