Advice on Diet and Lifestyle

After finishing the complete course of Azithromycin, probiotics should be given to help restore some of the good bacteria in the intestines that may have been destroyed. Antibiotic-associated diarrhea can be reduced by taking probiotics following antibiotic therapy. Yogurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha, and kimchi are examples of fermented foods that can aid in the restoration of healthy bacteria in the gut.

Include more fiber-rich foods in your diet since they are easier for your gut bacteria to digest, which aids in their growth. As a result, fiber diets may aid in the restoration of healthy gut flora following antibiotic treatment. Include entire grains in your diet, such as whole-grain bread and brown rice.

Azithromycin’s effectiveness may be harmed if you consume too much calcium or iron-rich meals and beverages.

When using Azithromycin, you should avoid drinking alcoholic drinks since it might dehydrate you and disrupt your sleep. This might make it more difficult for your body to help Azithromycin battle infections.

Glossary of Diseases and Conditions

Bacterial infection is a situation in which dangerous bacteria enter our bodies, grow, and infect us. It may target any portion of the body and multiply swiftly. When bacteria infects you, you may have nonspecific symptoms such as fevers, chills, and exhaustion. Bacteria come in a variety of shapes, the most common of which are spherical, rod-shaped, and spiral-shaped. Bacterial infections range from simple ailments such as sore throats and ear infections to serious diseases such as meningitis and encephalitis.
