afib and zythromycin or zpack

[Guest guest]

Does anyone ever get a reaction from the antibiotic zithromycinor zpack, like

nausea and afib and clamminess behind neck? all the pharmacists say it is safe

for people with afib, just wondering if anybody has had a reaction . thank you

Hi . I was cardioverted to NSR on Dec 27 and caught some kind

of virus in the ER. The day after I got home I went to my GP and he

prescribed a " Z Pack " for me. I took it for 4 or 5 days and it

cleared up whatever I had but days later I went back into AFIB. The

NSR lasted on 9 days and it was back to the ER for another

Cardioversion. I have since read on this board....last

month....about the effects of antibiotics and afib. I was on

Amiodorone so maybe that had something to do with it. My GP said it

shouldn't have effect the AFIB.

Hi ,

I took z-paks a couple of times in the last few years and did not

experience any bad reactions from it. I do remember being concerned

about taking it, but it did not trigger an afib episode.

Zpack is the only antibiodic I can take. I'm alergic to penicillin and

tetracycline so that leaves levaquin or zithromycin. When I researched

antibiodics

for pneumonia, those were the 4 recommended. There were other names but all

were one of the other 4. Zithromycin gave me no problems. Levaquin made my leg

muscles and tendons hurt.
