I Have Been Taking Azithromycin 250mg For A 5 Day

Posted on Sat, 13 Oct 2018

Question: I have been taking azithromycin 250mg for a 5 day course to treat bronchitis. Today is day 5, and now I am experiencing burning when I urinate. I have some 95 mg HCI phenazopyridine tablets that I used for similar bladder issue about a year ago but no longer have instructions with them. Can I take these now for a couple days to alleviate the bladder irritation? If so, what would be the prescribed dosage & frequency?
