antibiotics after bypass
Hi, everyone. I'm still awaiting insurance approval and trying to make up my mind for sure. I have the flu and it turned into bronchitis, so I went yesterday and got some zithromax. I'm allergic to most antibiotics, so my options in medications are limited. So, here's my questions:
Since there is a malabsorption issue with rny, what does your doctor prescribe and how does your stomach deal with it? I mean, you can't even take certain meds because of ulcer concerns, right? So, the new zithromax dosage is 4 pills at once. How would that work with rny?
Any thoughts would really be appreciated! I want to make sure I understand all of the ramifications before making this decision.

ps...if you've had other surgeries (band, ds, etc.), please share, too....
