Addiegal, Ford, questions!

Its me again! My client has arrythmia. They found out its from the zithromax. My question, do you know of any supplements she could take to counteract this? Its the only antibiotic she can take. Thanks for any help, as always~

She should not be taking ANYTHING except what her doctor orders for her - including OTC herbs and supplements. And YOu should not be prescribing them to her either.

Emmiesmom, I would not suggest she or anyone having arrythymia take anything other than what is prescribed by her doctor. Hope she is soon feeling better...

I'm sorry, emmiesmom, but I have no idea what should be done in this situation. I always research things on my own. I wish I could help. ${#emotions_dlg.wub}$

I know. I checked with her pharmacist and she told me the things she would suggest would interfere with her other meds. Her doctor had no suggestions.

Nevertheless, it's good advice. Dealing with antibiotics and arrythmia can be life threatening and should be treated by physicians.

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

Is she seeing a Cardiologist??

Here is a link from the FDA on this antibiotic and heart arrythymia. This is a serious situation. I am so sorry she is going through this... http://www.fda.gov/drugs/drugsafety/ucm341822.htm

I agree with happy housewife and adelle. It upsets me to see such posts as the OP.I hope this thread will be deleted.
