No known interaction

Detailed Answer:
Hi there

Thank you for sending in your query.

There is no known interaction between cetrizine and azithromycin.

So the use of the two drugs as a combination should not be a problem.

However it is always preferable to use all medications under the supervision of a doctor.

I Hope this was helpful.

I would be happy to provide answers to any other questions which you may have.
