Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 I had to stop Zithromax seventeen days ago because of its side effects: severe anxiety and panic attacks. I would like to hear from others who experienced the similiar side effects. How long does it take for these side effects to disspate from the system after termination of the antibiotics. I know at least two other people who have similiar reactions. One recovered after six weeks and another still is in a very bad shape after couple of months. Please e mail me if you don't want to post here. Any feedback would be very much appreciated. thank you in advance, elizabeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2000 Report Share Posted September 30, 2000 - Just my opinion...... based on myself, husband, 2 of my 6 kids, best friend, her hubby, her 3 kids, another neighbor, her whole family, etc. We ALL get the anxiety/panic attacks. What helps them is either Xanax (even 1/2 of a pill) AND you have to try and talk yourself down. We also have found that any lymie should be on an antidepressant too. This is because lymies have a lack of seratonin also. Since I have been treated now for 2 yrs. , I have not had an attack in a long time. Zith. is one of the best Rx for lyme cuz it and Suprax are superior in penetrating the cell walls. I personally cannot take zith, cuz it is way too strong for my stomach (diahrrea). sue in nj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
