Hello,
Yes, Aziwok drug can cause this side effect.
Aziwok is a macrolide antibiotic used to treat different types of susceptible bacterial infections including that of acne. Common side effects include heartburn, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, vomiting, and flatulence.
Consult your doctor for alternate effective antibiotic or to reduce its dose.
