Shall I Stop Taking Procefzil After Taking Azithromycine?

Hi, my doctor prescribed me Azithromycine to treat my cough. On day 3, and as the treatment doesn t work, he prescribed me Procefzil to treat my sore throat. I started procefzil 15 hours after the last tablet of azithromycine. Or, I ve read that there is drug interaction between aminoglycoside antibiotics (azithro) and procefzil (nephrotoxicity). Shall I stop procefzil? I have taken only once. Best regards;

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

The interaction is more likely if the medications are taken together.

Since you completed the course of the azithromycin before starting the other medication, you are not likely to have any interaction at all.

I hope this helps
