Hello Sue, I've started back on the Azithromycin 500 mg July 4th. I took it at 8:00pm before bed. The first week was OK. Then, last night I started the Ethambutol HCL 400mg. Took it at 8:00pm also with the Azithromycin.
At 1:00am I was having cold chills that lasted until 4:00am. This morning I felt like I got hit by a train. Every muscle in my body hurts. Today, I'm going to take them separately. Any suggestions? Thanks, MacInPA.

Tylenol helped me tolerate the aches & relieved the chills.
If it doesn't resolve in a few days, amybe call the doc - is there a reason for every day instead of 3x a week?
