Children at Risk for Z-Pak Heart Arrhythmia Side Effects
By John Curran
Although Zithromax and Z-Pak heart attack side effects have been known for years, relatively few studies had been done on both the elderly and young children. That was cleared up in a recent piece in the magazine of the American Academy of Pediatrics. They note that children with long QT are more susceptible to Z-Pak heart arrhythmia side effects, worsening their own condition.
Long QT is medical jargon, but it basically defines how long the miss-timed beats are in the heart. Medical professionals noted that there is now strong research that the highly popular antibiotic can cause cardiac problems and Z-Pak heart arrhythmia side effects. While the same has not been clearly noted in the elderly, geriatric specialists at the Mayo Clinic make the same recommendation.
Unfortunately for many users, the risk of Z-Pak heart attack side effects and Zithromax toxic epidermal necrolysis are under-publicized as millions take a five-day course of antibiotic pills. It’s not common for a number of these conditions, but Azithromycin class action lawsuit lawyers note that the number of drugs that produce poor interactions are stunningly large. In fact there are close to 50 that are either on the do-not-prescribe list or aren’t recommended by doctors.
Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind is that Zithromax toxic epidermal necrolysis side effects are fast-acting. If you see a rash on your arms, legs or face within the first day or two, get immediate medical help. Otherwise up to 90 percent of your skin could slough off. Even those who don’t may still face Z-Pak heart attack side effects, and should check their heart health first before considering the antibiotic.
