Hell Reneemc, why do you need to take Azithromycin and Omadacycline? What bacteria do you grow? My pulmonologist is thinking of giving me Azithro (3) times a week and I am trying to get more information. Do you take these antibiotics for prevention or for bacteria?

what is your pulmo treating with the Azithromycin 3 times a week? That is something they may prescribe for chronic Pseudo. Monday Weds Friday usually 250 ml on those days. It is more of a management strategy for chronic pseudo. Azithro does not actually work on pseudo directly.

I’m taking the maintenance phase antibiotics for Mycobacterium abscessus now intracelluar Did 2 months of IVs imipenem and Amikacin
