Suggest Remedy For Gassy Stomach After Taking Azithromycin For Sinus Infection
I have become very gassy after taking azithromycin for sinus infection. The first time I took it over a year ago I became very gassy too. I thought it was lactose intolerance. Now I am gassy regardless of what I eat. It was worse shortly after I took the first dose. Thanks Ekua
