Does Azithromycin Cause Aggressive Behavior In A Child?
Can Azithromycin cause to have aggressive behavior? My 8 yr old son is taking it for strep throat. I don t know if it is coincidence that shortly after taking this medicine he becomes very aggressive and emotional? I have never seen this behavior in him before?

Hello,
There are reports to suggest that azithromycin causes aggressive behavior. Since it was never the case in past I feel your assumption of aggressive behavior caused by azithromycin appears true.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
