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

Hello,
Few things that can help are small non spicy meals, adequate water intake, gasex tablets and lactobaccilus to restore your normal intestinal flora.Antibiotics also kill normal bacteria in intestine leading to such symptoms.So it akes some time for restoration.Regards.
