I don’t think my nausea /cramping response to the Nuzyra has changed at all after taking it for a year. If I premeditate with the Zofran half an hour before taking it I rarely have an issue though. At least that's my impression. I never skip the Zofran. But once in awhile it doesn’t work for some reason. Maybe I don’t get the timing just right, or my stomach is more or less empty than usual, or who knows. Then I’m in for at least an hour of incapacitating and miserable GI stuff.

Thanks for your response. i will have to ask my Dr about Zofran. i have been lucky with the Azithromycin and Rifampin (on now for almost 2 years) but the Ethambutol I had to go off for eye problems, Then they put me on Arikayce for 8 months and the cough was terrible they took me off that as well. That's when they added Nuzyra. Hope with time the effects will get better.
