Has anyone else (who's taken Zithromax) had tremors from it? I just got an increase in dosage and how often I take it and I'm having some major tremors, one that woke me up last night. I'm pretty sure the Zithromax is the cause, but wanted to see what others have experienced.

- Middle of night, wonder if low blood sugar might be a contributing factor? A light snack with some protein, complex carbohydrate & good fat is important about an hour before bedtime. A half cup of quinoa about a forth of an avocado, for instance.
Or low magnesium?
I've had a lot of what one might call tremors (and beyond) and there are many contributing factors. Sometimes, often, it's low blood sugar or low magnesium that tips it over the edge.
Still, be sure your liver support is tip-top as that usually helps this sort of thing.
Must be spread out 3 - 4 x a day, never all at once. -

- Also be sure no "natural flavors" or MSG in your diet and be sure not to consume any added glutamate (or glutamic acid) in supplements / powders.
See post: Caution: Aspartate; Glutamine; and Phenylalanine (3 excitatory amino acids that can be wrong for us when added as supplements, beyond a normal dietary level)
Seaweed has its own natural MSG and can be very excitatory -

When I took Zithromax, I did not have tremors.
I get twitches when I need Magnesium.
I get tremors and shakes when my blood sugar is out of whack.

I got and get tremors when I'm extremely toxic. I think for me it has to do with heavy metals being flushed out or with herxes.
I get like too hungry sometimes when I'm toxic, with tremors, but not really due to hunger...
All that stop with right binders (usually chlorella in big amounts, in my case). It stops so fast (in less than half an hour after ingestion), that is why I am sure, in my case, tremors are one of the symptoms of toxicity.
