Does Z-Pak Interact With Gabapentin?

I am on gabapentin300 following knee replacement. I have taken 20 of the 30. I have had flu like symptoms for four days which I feel is the flu. Because I also had a sinus infection I was on a Z Pack. Are there any dangers here. I really do feel I have flu.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There are no known interactions between z pack (azithromycin ) and gabapentin so they can be safely used together without a problem due to the combination.

Azithromycin is commonly used for respiratory tract infection so it should help with your sinusitis if there is a bacterial infection present.

I hope this helps
