I seem to be having a lot of side effects from this and wonder if others had had side effects and if so what were they?

I had a ringing in my ears and a unilateral hearing loss last time I took Zithro. It resolved itself when I stopped the drug. Jess.

I lost substantial hearing with this ABX. It may have worsened my tinnitus also.

I had better luck with biaxin as far as the ear symptoms. They are both closely related.

Zithromax did not seem to cause more anxiety or depression for me. Mepron and some of the others did, though.

Has no one had this problem? Does anyone know how long it would take to get this out of my system and feeling better if it is the drug causing this?

I can't take either zith or biaxin. Gives me deep dark depression and anxiety. Once I stopped taking it, the effects went away in a few days. Tried it a few times with the same effect.

Hey Cheryl sue thanks for letting me know this, when you say a few days do you mean like two or 4 or longer since I know it has such a long half life
