Hi & Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, since there is no harmful interaction between the two prescribed medications hence can be taken together safely.
Both Azithromycin and Doxycycline are recommended together for treatment of pneumonia caused by the atypical bacteria Chlamydia pneumoniae.
It is also safe to quit the one (Doxycycline) before the other (Azithromycin), as there is no adverse effect while doing so.
Hope this answers your query.
