Can anyone tell me how long it takes to get hit with side effects from MAC antibiotics?
Thanks.

@kmescherich, welcome. @wal6578 asked this very question and received numerous helpful tips from fellow MAC members about the onset of side effects from MAC antibiotics. For this reason, I moved your post to this existing discussion.

Your question is a good one and a question many have when starting new treatment. It's important to keep in mind that everyone is different and not everyone experiences side effects or the the same effects. Was it suggested to you to have your eyes checked before starting treatment? When will you start?
