Is IVIG Infusion Advisable While On Zithromax And Cefdinir For Lung Infection?
Good Evening, I scheduled for my third round of IVIG starting tomorrow thru Thursday. I have a slight lung infection at the moment and have been on Zithromax and Cefdinir since last Wednesday. Is there any reason why I could not go ahead with my infusion? Thank You

Hi,
There is no as interaction mention in literature, these antibiotics in past are taken along with ivig [Cefedinir can be stopped one day before as half life is 1-2 hr and before 2 day Zithro can be dropped if possible.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
