Can taking Azithromycin cause any serious heart problems? I've used it quite a bit, but recently stumbled upon this info and it got me a bit worried. Should I be considering different antibiotics? I was on Azithromycin for a 10-day course for a UTI once.

Accepted Answer

Azithromycin can indeed have an effect on the heart, particularly in individuals with certain risk factors such as existing heart conditions or those who are prone to heart rhythm abnormalities. It is important to be cautious when using Azithromycin and to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider. If you have a history of cardiac issues or if you are worried about potential risks, it may be advisable to consider alternative antibiotics.

Accepted Answer

The presence of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) as mentioned in the echo cardiography report is a serious concern that should not be ignored. In this case, it is advisable to consult a pulmonologist for further evaluation and management of the PAH. The pulmonologist may recommend specific medications to help manage the condition and improve your father's symptoms. One common medication used for PAH is Sildenafil (Revatio), which helps to relax the blood vessels in the lungs and improve blood flow. Additionally, it is important to address the ongoing symptoms of troubled breathing, fever feeling, and cough. Your father may benefit from a bronchodilator such as Salbutamol (Ventolin) to help with breathing difficulties, along with an antibiotic if the cough is due to a respiratory infection. Overall, it is essential to follow up with a pulmonologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan tailored to your father's specific condition. Regular monitoring and management of PAH are crucial to prevent further complications and improve quality of life.

Accepted Answer

You have a history of heart anxiety since 2011 and have undergone multiple tests, including an echo in August which showed mild mitral regurgitationtricuspid regurgitation grade 1 and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. After experiencing issues with fast heart rate tachycardia on recent ECGs, your doctor suggested a stress echo which you have completed. It would be helpful to review the report to provide a more accurate recommendation. Please provide the details of the stress echo report for further evaluation.
